On Thanksgiving Eve 1971, America's most famous skyjacking occurred upon Northwest Orient Airlines' flight 307, on course from Portland, Oregon to Seattle Washington. The mystery of who would have done it and why still intrigues professional investigators and internet sleuths alike. 

Criminal Intent’s host, De Andra Kenoly, will take a look at seven suspects that were on the FBI's list. These were the ones we felt were the most compelling and interesting. Without having any hard evidence to pin it on a particular person, these suspects were subsequently taken off. 

A special thanks to Colm Whelan for researching and co-writing this script.
