The Golden Age of Hijacking
Between 1968 and 1972 air piracy was astonishingly commonplace in America, with over 130 planes being hijacked during this period. Hijackers sought political asylum in Cuba or demanded money as a resolution to their often-desperate circumstances. The Vietnam war had proved to be massively unpopular, the idealism from the 1960s was a thing of the past, and public hysteria was being stoked by the mass media. All the while politics was seen to be failing to end the epidemic of hijacking, interwoven with this is the psychology of these disenchanted and desperate men who felt that their circumstances were such that the only solution was seen to be the hijack of a commercial plane. A way out.
