[REDACTED] added that the stipulations made for the
reception of the aircraft at Reno, Nevada, were based on the
same instructions that the hijacker had previously furnished
prior to the landing at Seattle and no member of the crew
departed from the cockpit to check on the presence of the
hijacker following the arrival in the compartment of hostess
[REDACTED] who had locked the door behind her.
[REDACTED] added that it had not occurred to them
at the time, but they could have pinpointed their exact location
at the time the oscillation was felt and admitted that the
crew had emergency exits from the pilot's compartment via
the windshields and a rope ladder. Conceivably, following
the departure of the passengers and during one of the periods
that hostess [REDACTED] was off the plane obtaining the parachutes,
the remainder of the crew could have vacated the aircraft
leaving the hijacker on board alone.
