Flight Attendant Taking with Reporters About Hijacking

Flight attendant Flo Schaffner, one of the crew members of the hijacked Northwest Airlines flight 305, tells reporters that she initially thought the hijacker was trying to hustle her when he gave her a note stating "I have a bomb." The 1971 skyjacking became one of the country's most mysterious crimes, as the hijacker, one D.B. Cooper, disappeared without a trace after jumping out of the 747 airplane with $200,000 cash and four parachutes.
