To begin, the transportation system and the methods they use have greatly impacted both how and where people decide to live. The transportation system is a very important aspect to any nation’s economy. As stated, transportation systems also offer opportunities for terrorists who wish to disrupt and damage transportation systems and injure an immense number of people. In 1985, TWA Flight 847 was hijacked on a flight from Athens to Rome. The plane was overtaken by Shitte Hezbollah terrorists who desperately wanted to know the identity of the passengers with Jewish sounding names. The two terrorists who are of a Lebanese decent that were armed with a 9 millimeter gun and grenades made the plan land in the city of Beirut in Lebanon. As the hijackers

If I could be any person for one day, I would be in the Eighty Second Army Airborne during D-Day in WWII. I want to be an Army Ranger in WWII because, D-Day was one of the most historic battles ever fought. Also, I want to see it through the soldier’s eyes, being one thousand feet above the ground looking down as flak lights up the night sky and bullet tracers pierce through the clouds. To me, the Eighty Second Airborne was one of the most elite Infantry groups ever created. They have fought in many wars and battles since the elite group was created. To be in a plane jumping into the night sky with the cold European wind hitting you in the face and the deafening sound of the planes flying overhead would be an experience that I will never forget.

Thesis: Pan Am flight 103 was one of the first commercial aircraft to be taken down by terrorist with an improvised explosive device (IED) containing Semtex, a high explosive, and a timing device hidden in checked luggage. The flight was delayed on takeoff time, which resulted in the aircraft exploding over land leaving evidence for forensic investigators. FAA regulations of screening checked bags with X-ray technology was ignored, allowing the (IED) device on board with checked luggage in the cargo hold. Theories of motive lead investigators to believe this was an act of retaliation.

According to NIST (National Institute for Standard Technology) the planes may have crashed, but the cause of the collapses were emerging fires-that sprung from jet fuel and flying debris. This supports the theory that exposed steel allowed fires to spring off and burn buildings until they collapsed.

While Millions watched very frightened because of the events in New York, American Airlines Flight 77 went around downtown Washington D.C, and slammed into the west of the Pentagon military headquarters at 9:45 am. Jet fuel from the Boeing 757 caused a devastating flame that led to a collapse of the whole building. After all of this, 125 people were killed in the Pentagon itself while 64 died inside of the airplane. (History)

Cooper, hijacked the plane with a ransom note that demanded money and parachutes, when he got the money he jumped off the plane, never to be seen again.

Other theorists believe that the passengers were murdered or relocated and be found. Some conspiracy theorists will say that a missile that honed in on one of the plane’s engines shot down the plane. Eyewitness accounts of a "mystery plane" that

What I want to be when I grow up is an aerospace engineer. The reason for me wanting to be an aerospace engineer is that I have a lot of interest in astronomy. In this paper I will tell you many things like what Aerospace engineers do, what you need to do to become an Aerospace engineer, colleges nearby that work with aerospace engineering, what the median pay is, and what the work schedule may look like

There are several events that contributed to this incidents occurring. Some of them are related in the form of chain events for instance the second event occur because of the effect from the first event and the third event occur because of the effect from second event and so on until the incident occur. By using SHELL Model, base on the Aircraft Accident Report 3/96 which was provided and presented by Air Accidents Investigation Branch, Department of Transport, under the report title of “Report on the Incident to Boeing 737-400, G-OBMM near Davontry on 23 February 1995, the analysis of the contribution events to the incident can be reveal and the appropriate recommendations from competence authority was been made to ensure the same incident will not occur in the future.

Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) Flight 751 landed at Stockholm/Arlanda Airport I on 26 December, 1991, at 2209 hours. Little did they know, within 24 hours that would be the last time it would land at an airport. The plane landed on a slush covered filled after it had snowed at the airport. Upon landing, the wings still had roughly 2,550 kilograms of fuel left in each of them. There the plane sat at a gate and at around 0200 hours on 27 December, 1991, a flight technician had finished inspecting the airplane and had noted that ice had formed on upper portion of the wings.
