  1. Perhaps they all had Close Encounters of the 4th kind ...this latest one, however, sure looks like a hijacking--the pilots may or may not have been in on (my bet is they were).

  2. I can't help but notice that with the advancing electronic babysitters- there are less each year...except for that cluster in the mid 2000's.

    Also maybe they should look at the S&R equipment they had back in 1947 versus today.
