Ax-wielding crewman ends Calgary hijack six hours in air
A masked hijacker carrying dynamite and a shotgun seized Air Canada Flight 812 from Calgary to Montreal with 123 aboard. An Air Canada crewman used a fire ax 3,000 feet up to knock him unconscious, ending a border-crossing six-hour ordeal. The hijacker, claiming IRA ties, demanded 1.5 million and a safe passage to Ireland, later accepting 350,000 ransom in Great Falls, Montana, before passengers were released. The plane zigzagged across the U S Canada border before the crew subdued him and freed several crew and passengers.
