[REDACTED] stated she first became attracted to the conversation in the adjacent booth when she heard the female ask the lone male about a person named [REDACTED] who seemed to be a former close associate of the three persons. The lone male, in responding to her question regarding [REDACTED] made reference to a time when there had been a "whole raft of hijackings" and stated at this time [REDACTED] was working, either with or for, the lone male. [REDACTED] had spoken about these hijackings with the lone male and told him how he would hijack an airplane successfully. [REDACTED] had spoken of demanding four or five parachutes and holding hostages, however, [REDACTED] could recall no mention being made of any ransom demand. She did recall [REDACTED] expertise in skydiving being discussed and the comment made that he could "land on a dime". The lone male stated that [REDACTED] had left his employment in his Land Rover about four or five days prior to the hijacking and returned about five days after the hijacking had occurred. [REDACTED] had returned and then left and went to some unknown location where he went into business by himself. She also specifically recalls the lone male stating the statute of limitations would soon run on the crime [REDACTED] had committed.
