Liemberg 0 #1 February 14, 2010 several Dutch news sites mention an attempt to hijack a skydiving plane in Evora, Portugal. According to that story a man (ex-militairy) who went along to make pictures pulled a gun, forced two skydivers to jump and wanted the pilot to jump also but the pilot refused and managed to cut off the fuel since he thought the man was not going to fly to Spain (as he said he would) but was planning to crash the plane in Lisbon. The pilot then made a rough landing somewhere in Portugal. After that the would be hijacker supposedly killed himself with the gun. Anybody in the know out there who can shed some light on what happened? "Whoever in discussion adduces authority uses not intellect but memory." - Leonardo da Vinci A thousand words...
