9/11 really ruined skyjacking for everyone. Nobody trades airliners between Miami and Havana anymore.

Oh my God Bill hader is skyjacking my flight. He's using the PA system on board to talk about his favorite Agnes Varda and Yasujiro Ozu movies. He seems like a total dick and has issued no demands

Ok I had never seen the “DB Cooper was trans” theory before.

The Skies Belong To Us by Brendan Koerner is an enjoyable read and I want to know what happened to Cathy Kerkow. Also remarkable that airlines were just able to make people put up with skyjacking for a decade because they were cheap and could bully Congress.
The Right Stuff really does deserve its reputation as a classic. Tom Wolfe was cooking with that one.
If you liked The Wager, you might like River of Darkness by Buddy Levy too. Not as good as The Wager, but it's hard to beat Grann!

"To understand how it might be possible for someone to convincingly portray a man for the purposes of a skyjacking, it helps to understand that Barbara Dayton was born Bobby Dayton in 1926."

Yeah. Sucks to have a skyjacking-obsessed anxiety disorder, though.

Honestly I've seen people say that street trees and road diet water reclamation gardens are gentrification because they're "Prettying up the place" when it comes time to redo your neighborhoods road beds.
It's the landlords skyjacking rent costs to push undesirables out that are gentrifying.

Apparently there was a period of time where there was at least one skyjacking per week for a span of 5yrs in the US
And I think we need to get back to that. Not for 9/11 reasons, for DB Cooper & flying to Cuba reasons

Same here, but that's because I have an anxiety disorder that takes about one scary headline to start suggesting skyjacking as a solution.
