Riktigt schyssta bilder Per =)
Caraveller är läskiga - fick flyga Kronflygs Caravelle hem några gånger när jag gjorde lumpen i Luleå. Den där ser som tur är dock inte flygduglig ut :)

Det är dessutom en av försvarets två Caraveller, så denna har du nog flugit tilloch med.

[edit]Hijacking

Flight 405 was a regularly scheduled domestic passenger flight operated by Finnair between Oulu Airport and Helsinki Airport. On September 30, 1978, the flight was serviced by a Sud Aviation SE-210 Caravelle.[1]Aarno Lamminparras, a 37-year-old unemployed home building contractor who had recently declared bankruptcy, boarded the aircraft in Oulu. Since Finnish airports did not perform security checks on domestic flights,[2] he was able to carry a loaded Walther 7.65mm pistol aboard. At approximately 16:00,[3] while enroute to Helsinki, Lamminparras entered the cockpit and held the pilot at gunpoint.[4] The aircraft continued to Helsinki, where 34 of the passengers were released.[3]Lamminparras subsequently forced the pilot to fly back to Oulu where the aircraft circled the airport for several hours before landing to refuel. A US$ 168,000 ransom payment from Finnair was also loaded onto the plane. The plane was then flown back to Helsinki, where Lamminparras demanded $38,000 from Helsingin Sanomat, Finland's largest newspaper. The newspaper paid approximately $18,000, and the remaining eleven passengers were freed.[2][3]The aircraft then flew to Amsterdam, where it landed at Schiphol Airport and refueled. It then returned to Helsinki and received the remainder of the newspaper's ransom payment. The Caravelle then continued on to Oulu.[2][3]Lamminparras's final demands included four bottles of whiskey, a chauffeured limousine, and 24 hours alone at home with his wife.[4] After police agreed to his demands, Lamminparras released the final three hostages, all of them crewmembers.[3] He agreed to surrender peacefully Monday morning.[2][4][5]Oulu police stormed Lamminparras's house and arrested him on Sunday September 31. A police spokesman indicated that law enforcement officers had tapped the hijacker's home phone, and that he had made several phone calls that implied he did not plan to surrender peacefully as he had initially agreed.[3][4][6][7] He was sentenced to seven years' imprisonment in 1979.[8]

Läst lite mer om händelsen - en ytterst märklig historia. En affärsman med psykiska problem efter att hans företag hade gått omkull. De där stora summorna han krävde skulle levereras till ett krigsveteransjukhus, till en SOS barnby och till familjen. Efter att han frigavs bytte han namn och flyttade till Sverige. Nu är han en gammal man, men kanske lever han inte längre. Förresten så bodde jag i Oulu/Uleåborg vid tidpunkten i fråga, men har rätt svaga minnen om händelsen.
OH-LSB det stämmer, det är den kärran som kapades i Finland.
