There were 2 interesting suggestions by experts in the early 70s, that 1) all US airport departure lounges should periodically play the Cuban national anthem, and let security people catch those who stood up for the anthem, and 2) US government should build a mock Havana airport in the US aiming to trap the hijackers after the planes land. Have they been implemented?

Now your plane catches on fire because of bad wiring and overload or goes down because of lack of maintenance.
defective parts. Or like Malaysia airlines and a few others a savatage mechanics occasionally sabotages the plane.
Or last but not least suicidal pilots! YUP. My wife left me.

Can you do a video of how we got to having big lawns of grass? It's really hard to imagine that it was a thing before the industrial age yet you see old castles surrounded by big green lawns. How and when did it become popular and how were they first maintained?

He only got shorted $200? Thats nothing. The Military rips ppl off so much we made a cadence about it they give you $100 and take back 99.
Chances are if the military owes you money, dont hold your breath. But if you owe them? Oh, theyre gonna get it back.

A pilot friend of mine once told me he was hijacked. He said he became the most important person on that aircraft and was absolutely needed to operate that lane. The the other flight crew members were optional. He lived

DB cooper was the best hijacker.
didn't cause mass panic, didn't blow up the plane, let everyone live and got away. i call that a success
it's wrong to commit the crime of hijacking but i respect his approach.

1967, Are You Experienced by the Jimi Hendrix Experience was released. In 1975, KISS Alive was released. 1967-1975 the greatest 9 year period in rock music history, I call it the Jimi Hendrix era.

Only if there were a way to end all skyjackings. OH THATS RIGHT! ALLOW ALL LICENSED GUN CARRIERS TO HAVE THIER WEAPONS. If that happens I guarantee you their won't be anymore skyjackings.

This is really interesting. The stock footage use was a bit much, though. Every shot is some picture being rotated while blended with another image. I'd like to just look at stuff.

Kinda crazy how hijacking a plane in the 60s amounted to just transporting a plane across state lines. Like not even grand theft aero? or something like that? Just transporting it.

Since the US wanted to assassinate Castro, and hijackers were taking planes to Cuba, why didn't they fake a hijacking. He boarded the planes. Talk about life giving you lemons.

The pronunciation of frijoles was already cringe. But saying that hijacking a plane for pizza instead of frijoles would have been more acceptable was even more cringe.

Fidel Castro was a hero. A man well before his time Capitalism has neither the capacity, nor the morality, nor the ethics to solve the problems of poverty - Fidel Castro

27 years after teaching pilots how to handle hijackers by having maps, spanish-language notecards and such, they came up with the idea to lock the freaking cockpit door.

I feel unsafe in planes during modern times.
It's not the hijacking, but the thousands of feet from planet earth and the speed of the plane that tickle my nerves.

Seems like screening passengers before entering a plane was probably an idea that shouldn't have taken 13 or so years and hundreds of hijackings to figure out

I would love to see a video about the blackout in NYC in 1977. I was only 8 but it's one of the first news I really remember happening.
