RE: SUB B - NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS
Enclosed are xeroxed copies of newspaper articles appearing on November 13, 1971, in The Seattle Times and The Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
The enclosed newspaper articles describe the first attempted skyjacking that involved the use of parachutes. It is noted the skyjacking occurred approximately twelve days before NORJAK.
The skyjacker was apprehended by the crew of an Air Canada DC8. He was apprehended because he did not have a clear plan of action when he boarded the plane. The following is a quote from the newspaper article appearing in The Seattle Times: "As the hijacker was preparing to jump, the pilot . . . jumped him and a purser came up behind him and let him have it with a fire ax."
It is possible that unsub got the idea for his crime by reading about the unsuccessful skyjacker of Air Canada's DC8.
ARMED AND DANGEROUS.
