People would risk their life and freedom for money without regarding the consequences. On flight 305 a man whom went by the name of Dan Cooper did just that, but did his actions have consequences? D.B. Cooper is known for hijacking a plane until he received what he wanted. A note was written by D.B Cooper on that day, the note stating he had a bomb and had every intention on using it, if his demands where not met. He demanded that in a brief case, they were to put 200,000 dollars and four parachutes, with no funny business. After receiving what he wanted he jumped off the plane near Mexico, after ordering them to slow the plane, and go at a lower altitude, he used one of the parachutes he demanded. This is where the mystery begins; did Dan …show more content…
D.B. Cooper was one of those, when he hijacked plane 305. Although some evidence points he might of hijacked the plane out of desperation, it has not been proven. Mostly, due to the lack of evidence, that the FBI was unable to obtain, throught their whole investigation. All their leads led to nothing. The FBI has found a man that looks a lot like D.B Cooper, this man also disappeared the same time that D.B Cooper skyjacked the plane. The man has never been found, and has been missing as long as D.B Cooper. The photos that they have seen, have matched the description of D.B cooper. This man had also been seen around the airport some days before the actual skyjacking occurred. Many believe this man, may be “Dan Cooper”, due to the description matching, and other evidence. The only way to prove it, is by asking a flight attended that was with him and saw him close up would look at the photo and say yes or no. This has been unable to happen, due to the flight attendent refusing to be interviewed for the D.B Cooper case, adding to the theory that staff was involved. They have also tried, talking to the family of the missing guy, but all they have said is that he left for no reason, and never came back. Why would this man just leave for no reason? The FBI has searched but, its as if no one knows anything. Like all the other leads this lead got closed, for lack of evidence, due to inability of finding anything. In conclusion, just like every other theory and lead, the FBI has found nothing and shut down any lead, concluding in the D.B Cooper case as
Alicia Pereira was the first. In 1972, five-year-old Alicia disappeared after her brother left her alone in a hotel lobby. One minute she was playing around, and the next she was gone. Rand was the prime suspect in this case. Although they never proved Andre killed her, little Alicia was never seen again. There isn't much to his next victim. Her name was Audrey Lyn Nerenberg, and she was 18 years old. Just like Alicia, Audrey was never seen again after the day she went missing in 1977. In 1981, Holly Ann Hughes, a seven-year-old girl did not return home after she went with a friend to get candy from a local store. Andre Rand saw Holly at the store, drove by her in his Volkswagen, pulled her in, and drove off. Holly’s parents filled out a Missing Person’s report. Unfortunately, they never got their daughter back. Why did Rand leave her friend? Who knows why. Tiahease Jackson, in 1983, was 11 years old when she went missing. She did not return home after her mother sent her to get groceries. Tiahease was last seen on August 14th, 1983. This was 12 days after Andre was released from a previous prison sentence. Like Alicia, Audrey, and Holly, Tiahease was never seen again. Henry was his oldest victim, at the age of 22. In 1984, Henry Gafforio disappeared. Some say, Henry was “slow.” Not physically slow, but mentally slow. He was last seen with Rand at a local diner. Now this next
...thin minutes and took the film.” There was barely any debris from the plane. The government stated that all the planes that were hijacked were the same. The engine of the plane that was found at the scene of the Pentagon attack didn't have the same engine as the other planes, with that being said, it could have been a smaller plane since it was a smaller building. There were no aircraft wreckage, wings, tails, luggage, seats, and bodies. The plane that appears to be flown into the Pentagon was said to be Flight 77 especially from the size of it. Flight 77 can be remote-controlled whether with or without guidance. The transponders for all of the planes were turned off. The way the plane made its exit was a perfect circle but that circle didn't match the plane that the American government claimed it to be. The Pentagon also seemed to be rigged with explosives as well.
To pursue these law-breaking offenders a lackadaisical spirit is not present because this bureau of investigation wants to protect the people and their rights—with their lives at hand. They have a system for those who try to abuse the people and who act erroneously with their rights are put on the “Most Wanted” list, a list that contains people who violated the law to the extent of major penalties. This list was established so the people know who the FBI are trying to catch and, money is always included if a citizen captures or leaks information the FBI needs about the location of a most wanted person. The FBI is a well-structured organization that seeks justice for all citizens.
The investigation led to the arrest of a man that placed a bomb in his mothers’ luggage and was the beneficiary of his mother’s life insurance policy. Another inflight bombing would occur in 1960 where a National Airline’s flight exploded killing all 34 people on board and again in 1962 where a Continental Airline’s flight exploded killing 45 people on board. The increase and frequency of these bombings did not bring a significant change in the screening of passengers and their luggage it would take another fourteen years before the FAA under the control of the Federal Government to pass legislation that allowed for the screening of all passengers and their luggage. The central point that drove the 1974 Air Transportation Security Act was a combination of aircraft bombings and the start of aircraft hijackings. One of the first United States incidents involving a hijacked aircraft took place in Portland, Oregon on a scheduled route to Seattle, Washington in 1971. A man identified only as D.B. Cooper quietly took over control of a TWA Boeing 727 aircraft once it was airborne. He indicated to a flight attendant that he had a bomb in his briefcase and he intended to detonate if his demands were not met. The plane landed safely in Seattle and
It was said that shootings with a rifle in the Montgomery County area were rare and by that time it had already been three shootings within two days. Since, every time a shooting happened, a witness saw a “white, box truck” nearby, police assumed that would be the vehicle that the snipers would be in. Once the news got hold of that information, different news anchors started to create possible profiles for the sniper. First, they thought it was only one person responsible for the shooting. They then went on to say that the sniper was a white, middle-aged male with a high degree of anxiety and military experience. One of the detectives in the case assumed that once these shootings started happening, that it was dealing with terrorists because 9/11 had just happened the previous
Over the years the men and women that risk their lives by boarding planes under a false identity to protect us have been called many things. The names range from simple, “Sky Marshal” to more complicated “Civil Aviation Security Liaison Officers.” No matter what they have been called through the years one thing has always stayed the same. The United States Federal Air Marshals have always been a group of our finest law enforcement officers that give up the luxury traditional police work to sit next to crying babies and old talkative ladies all day. They do this with one goal in mind, to keep the airways safe for private citizens to enjoy the luxury of travel. “The history of the air marshals is closely rooted with the history of hijackings and bombings targeting commercial aircraft. Some of the bombings and hijackings throughout history had more of an impact than others on Federal Air Marshal tactics, manpower and security procedures. These events and the responses of those in civil aviation and the US government are essential to understand the need for air marshals as a last line of defense.” (Biles, 2013) With the rise of crime in the aviation sector the US government has gone to the Federal Air Marshals more times than not for protection of its citizens. It has not always been easy for them and they have not had the best funding around but as you will see throughout this paper, The US Federal Air Marshals have always answered when called upon.

A switch from premium overnight services to lower – margin deferred services and ground delivery services is an advantage to Airborne Express. With existing assets including trucks, tracking systems, regional hubs and sorting facilities, they only need minor initial investments to develop fully these kinds of services. They should use these assets wisely and effectively.

Critique of “First Flight” The “First Flight” is an excellent short story that made pathos for the reader to portray in the life of an everyman who has to deal with exclusion and people’s bad choices. Gregory is an 18 year old who just wants to be sociable but everyone just shuts him out and doesn’t pay attention to him. He stops in a train station to warm up and is ridiculed on a false accusation of stealing a pilot uniform. W.D Valgardson perfectly shows both of the main themes.
When I stepped into the large neatly organized white polished plane, I never though something would go wrong. I woke up and found myself on an extremely hot bright sunny desert island filled with shiny soft bright green palm trees containing rough bright yellow hard felt juicy apples. The simple strong plane I was in earlier shattered into little pieces of broken glass and metal when crashing onto the wet slimy coffee colored sand and burning with red orange colored flames. After my realization to this heart throbbing incident I began to run pressing my eight inch footsteps into the wet squishy slimy light brown sand looking in every direction with my wide open eyes filled with confusion in search of other survivors. After finding four other survivors we began moving our small petite weak legs fifty inches from the painful incident. Reaching our destination which was a tiny space filled with dark shade blocking the extreme heat coming from the bright blue sky, I felt my eyelids slowly moving down my light colored hazel eyes and found myself in a dream. I was awakened the next day from a grumbling noise coming from my empty stomach.
In 1990 Boeing was set to introduce the 777, the world’s largest and longest haul twin-bodied jet at the time. The 777 would serve the medium and long haul markets like the expanding Asian market. Boeing’s main competitors, Airbus Industries and McDonnell Douglas, had already announced plans to produce airliners that would compete directly with the 777. Analysts believed that the intense competition between the manufacturers would serve to depress prices for the airliners. Lower prices for aircraft would mean lower earnings.

As the world advancement for aircraft safety, and the demand for aviation industry emerges, still, many factors would result to an aviation disaster, tragedy, and accident. This investigation focus on another horrible event that involves a questionable training for commercial pilots, An accident that indicates a further series of human factor issues, facing the most of the undesired weather conditions, the critical points of landing protocols and procedures,and the lack of technological adaptations on the progressions and maintenance of the airport instruments.That even one of the most advance airliner, and having a state of the art technology, will lead to another fatal circumstance and claim a hundreds of life.
