    A hijacker tried to bomb the plane, but it recovered. The hijacker forced the plane to fly to North Korea. It had to deal with North Korean fighter jets, but it outsmarted them. Th hijacker got shot but left a grenade on the floor. The FO sacrificed himself to save the plane, and it landed in a beach!

    Is it possible to kake the NAMC YS-11 involved in an abduction to North Korea in 1969? The one that flew from Gangneung to Seoul and hijacked to Wonsan (I think)
