Downloading at gate three.

All aboard, please.

Three, ma 'am.

I thank you.

I called yesterday and was told there's
some cancellation. The name is Russell.

Wallace Russell.

How long did Jackson go?

Um, the estimated flight is eight hours.
Eight hours?

We will be making good time, won't we?

Feature on the sign, sir.

Straight ahead to your left.

Straight ahead to your left.

Are you taking me off right away? Yes,
in a few moments, Mr. Russell.

Roger 116 rolling.

May I help you, sir? I have a message
for the pilot.

Tell him we won't be landing in
Jacksonville.

We're going straight to Cuba.

You heard.

Tell him Cuba.

Tonight's episode, Flight.

The hijacker of Transstate Flight 116
from Seattle to Jacksonville, Florida,

syndicate gambling figure Walter
Haslett, member of La Cosa Nostra, which

put him under a death sentence.

Haslett was also under indictment for
interstate gambling in aid of

racketeering, and was the object of an
intensive manhunt by the FBI, who had

tracked him to the Seattle -Tacoma
airport.

SE55 to Control.

Go ahead, SE55.

We've located Hazlitt's car at the
airport parking lot. The subject is not

sight. We're going to check the
terminal.

Notify other units on the special.

10 -4.

All right, thank you very much.

Well, Seattle Operations has just been
in touch with the pilots.

The hijacker who called himself Wallace
Russell has definitely been identified

as Hazlitt.

And a clerk at the terminal identified
him as the man who called sometime

yesterday regarding a cancellation.

Probably figured nobody would be looking
for him on a charter flight like this

one. Can that plane reach Cuba without
refueling?

I've been in touch with the trans
-state's home office in Seattle. They're

sure. Weather reports good tailwinds all
the way from the Midwest, but... How

much time do we have, sir?

Maybe eight hours at the most.

Did he have any known connections in
Cuba?

It's not likely.

They might give him asylum.

That's the best he can hope for now.

The Atlanta office still hasn't come up
with anything on the daughter?

Not since she left her college a couple
of days ago.

But they think that she's still
somewhere in the city.

That's her picture.

Hazlitt's always tried to protect her
from the kind of life he's led.

He picked a small and very distant
school to keep her away from the very

that's happened.

Surely our cousin Elsa knows about that,
too.

If they do grab her, she'd be quite a
lever to use against her father.

There's not much I can do here. I'd like
to get down to Atlanta.

All right.

If you can find her before they do, we
might have a chance of stopping,

We'll call you from there.

passenger buzzer.

They're probably wondering when they're
going to be served.

I do.

You tell them that this girl is sick and
you're working alone.

Come on.

Could I have your attention, please?

Your other stewardess has become ill.

So there'll be a delay in service.

Agnes, what the... Get back to your
seat. Stay there.

George, please.

Do as he says.

Hey, wait a minute. What's going on back
there?

There's a man back there with a gun.

Hijack.

Well, where does he want to go?

Cuba. Where else?

Hey,

Frank. Let me pull up here.

Okay, kid.

When I rest up, I'll give you a ride in
the boat.

Okay. Okay?

Yeah.

Keep your eye on the kids, Frank. Yeah.

Yes? It's Matty, Mr. Dennis.

I missed him. He hopped a charter flight
to Jacksonville, Florida.

Jacksonville? Yeah, I never would have
figured it, but I happened to spot him

getting on it.

His plane took off too fast for me to
make my move.

It's a prop job.

Takes about eight hours to get there.
I'm on a regular flight. I'll get in

of him.

I know he wouldn't be easy.

Don't worry, sir. I'll get him.

Eddie Floyd hasn't located his daughter
yet, and you've missed him, so I worry.

Hasler is a very unstable personality.

The man and his emotional condition is
brought to trial.

You know how important this is, Matty.

Call me when you get there.

Yes, sir.

What's Ginny got to do with it?

It's extremely important that we get in
touch with her.

Excuse me.

Inspector Harley Jones.

Harley, good to see you. Tom Colby. Hi,
Sam.

I located a close friend of Ginny
Haslitt's. Miss Stark, this is Inspector

Erskine and Agent Tom Colby. All right.

Is Ginny in danger?

She may be, Miss Stark.

Will you help us?

Oh, I haven't seen her lately.

But I can give you the name of the
school she's going to.

She left school, didn't she? Two days
ago?

I'm afraid that's all I can tell you.

May I go back to work now?

Why don't you tell us what you know?

We'd like to help her, but it's
difficult unless you help us.

She made me promise not to tell anyone
anything.

But I guess... Well, she's taken a job
in some kind of day school

here in town.

I don't know the name. She wouldn't tell
me.

Thank you.

Inspector?

Will this mean more trouble for Ginny?

She's had so much.

The school we went to was pretty
exclusive.

She was registered under another name,
but the kids found out who her father

was, his reputation, when they read
about his arrest in the papers.

I see.

I tried to tell them she wasn't
responsible for what he was.

Still, after that, no one would speak to
her.

Except you.

Who was that guy that came busting in
here a while ago?

I, uh, I used to go with him.

We broke up about a week ago.

He's the last person I expected to see
on this flight.

Why are you doing this?

For all kinds of trouble, honey.

Yours you don't die from.

Mine you... Well, nobody's better try
and stop me.

me know as soon as you do, right?

Thank you.

I located an address on the Hazlitt
girl, Lou, from a downtown employment

agency.

She's working at the Forrester Nursery
School, 1465 Rainey Street.

That's about 15 minutes from here.

Well, good work, Tom. Notify the Bureau,
will you? Let's go.

Speak to you in a minute?

Yeah, sure.

I've got a plan to take that hijacker.

But I need help.

Man, are you crazy?

You're going to get us all killed.

There's a very good chance we'll all get
killed anyway.

Do you think this old crate has a chance
of reaching Cuba?

Well, maybe he'll let us refuel
someplace.

Maybe he won't.

Maybe we dish right in the Gulf.

We've got to move now.

Oh, hey, I don't think I want any part
of this.

Sorry, I forgot you're only a big man
with the ladies, aren't you?

Why don't you go back and hold hands
with the stewardess again?

Hey, come on. Come over here. Sit down.

Sorry.

I'm nervous.

What's your name?

Debbie. Debbie?

Debbie Marsh.

You been flying long?

About six months.

How old are you, about 20?

21.

I've got a daughter about your age.

Go on, get back to work.

Hello, Jenny.

What are you doing in Atlanta?

Your father sent me.

He wants you with him right away.

Wants me with him?

Why didn't he call me?

He's jumped bail. He's on the run.

Oh, no, Eddie.

When? Last night.

I'm supposed to bring you to him.

Come on. We gotta hurry.

You're not leaving?

I have to, Mrs. Gibbs. There's been an
injury in the family.

Is there anything I can do?

No.

Ready now?

Yeah, let's go.

Oh, miss, do you have something?

I'm in pain.

Are you airsick?

No, it's my stomach. I think it's my
appendix.

Get back to your seat.

Find a doctor, please.

Hold it.

You tell the captain that if anyone else
tries what this guy did, they'll get

the same thing.

Now, you run along and play. Now, you
let her have it. It's her birthday.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

Well, that's all the man said. Just that
there'd been an injury in the family

and then he hurried into the car.

You say she called him Eddie?

Yes. Well, at least I think so.

Is there anything else you can remember
about the car?

No, just that it was a blue sedan with a
black top.

Of course.

The color of the license plate.

It was out of state.

Uh, green and white.

White letters on a green field, I think.

Florida. Can you remember any of the
numbers, Mrs. Gibbs?

Two or three would help.

I'm sorry.

Well, thank you.

Kansas City Center, this is Transstate
116.

Are you reference to our hijacking
situation and are you in communication

FBI?

Pages of the FBI are with us. Go ahead.

The gunman has shot a male passenger.

He seems critically wounded.

Do you wish emergency landing
instruction?

Well, we're trying to get permission
from him now.

Request landing clearance in the event
he does consent.

Roger. How is he?

He's bleeding badly. We've got to get
him to our hospital.

Let me call the captain. He can put down
at Wichita. Please.

It's just long enough to have him taken
off.

Call him.

This is the captain.

Captain?

Captain, this is Russell.

Yeah. You're to continue on your course
to Cuba.

You will not put down in Wichita or
anywhere else short of Havana.

Is that clear?

It's clear.

What's their position now?

Just passed over Wichita.

Potter reports he's uncertain of their
fuel supply. Doesn't know if they can

make Havana.

And the wounded man, how long did he
last?

There's no doctor on board, so they
can't be certain.

But they say his condition looks grave.

Hold on a second.

All right, we got a lead on Jenny
Hazard. I'll get back to you.

Right.

Unified spotted the car, Lou.

Blue sedan, Florida plates. At the
intersection of Route 6, there were

people in the car, two men and a woman.

Can they give us a description of them?
Better than that. They identified one of

the men as Eddie Floyd.

Call the Bureau.

Ask them if there's a warrant
outstanding on him. Unit, follow the car

diner at the edge of the Habsburg. Here.

They're maintaining surveillance.

Tell Unit 5 we're on our way.

Will somebody please tell me why we're
waiting here?

Is this where my father's supposed to
meet us?

Look, he at least would have called me
to tell me you were coming.

You've got a point.

I think you'd better let me out of here.
Shut up.

Hello, sir. How are you, sir?

Just fine.

I heard you were trying to reach me.

Got something important for me, Eddie?

I, uh, got the package you wanted, sir.

Good boy.

Now, look, I don't want you to stay
there.

You know Mr.

Chartel in Jacksonville?

I've met him.

I'll arrange for him to put you up.

Fly down, Eddie.

Charter something small.

I want you down there by... by three,
Eddie.

I'll be there.

Goodbye, sir.

All set.

The plane will be waiting for us. Eddie,
where's my father?

Look, I know you don't understand these
things, but I'm going to level with you.

The council wants him, and he's on the
run.

Now that we got you...

Take the back door.

Hold it.

Breathe. Hold it.

Hold it. Hands behind your back.

Roger, Memphis. Go ahead.

FBI requests information on condition of
wounded passenger.

The passenger is still alive, but his
condition is deteriorating.

The gunman still won't allow us to put
down.

What is your fuel state?

Well, as far as we've calculated, making
Cuba will be touch and go.

Depends upon the winds. It's impossible
to tell right now.

Are you still in touch with the FBI, and
can you give them a message?

Affirmative. Go ahead.

Due to the tenuous possibility of our
reaching Cuba, we're dumping fuel,

a landing in the United States.

I'll show the gunman the gauges.

I've made the decision. I can't risk
putting down in the sea.

We're dumping fuel.

I estimate this should give us enough
fuel to reach Jacksonville.

116 out.

I'm sorry for what I did. It was stupid.

I wanted to impress you.

You're silly.

You never had to impress me.

I loved you for what you were, and I
could never make you believe that.

Was anybody else?

Hurt for what I did.

No.

But he's just fine.

Marsh.

Put Russell on.

Come up here for a minute. There's
something I want to show you.

Tell me about it first.

We're running low on fuel. We might make
Jacksonville, but we'll never in a

million years make Cuba.

What is this, some kind of a trick,
Captain?

No, we've hit stiff winds. It's cost a
high expenditure of fuel.

I don't know much about airplanes,
Captain, but you do.

You could have fixed those gauges. We go
on to Cuba.

We can't do it.

We'll go down. Now, look, you've got to
believe me. I'm telling you the truth.

Maybe you are, maybe you're not.

But you see, unless I reach Cuba, I'm
dead anyway.

If this plane lands anywhere short of
Havana, I start shooting.

I don't believe it.

I know my father.

I knew he wouldn't put the lives of all
those people in danger.

He's under a death sentence. He's
wounded one man already.

He'll do anything to get out of the
country.

Do you want to talk to the pilot, Miss
Deslet?

He'll verify your father's the hijacker.

All right. Suppose it's true.

What can I do?

We'd like you to talk to him by radio.

Maybe you can change his mind.

So you can arrest him?

So 32 people can wake up tomorrow
morning, including one critically

Erskine. Lewis, we just received a
report from Memphis Airport Operations.

Hold on a second. Miss Hazlitt is here.
I think she ought to hear this.

All right.

Go ahead.

The pilot has disregarded our warning
not to dump fuel, and he thinks he

has enough to reach Jacksonville. But
Hazlitt is forcing him to continue.

But doesn't he know about the fuel?

Yes, but he thinks it's a trick.

He thinks the pilot is tampered with the
gauges, and he's threatening death to

the crew if a landing is attempted.

Thanks very much, Art. I'll get back to
you.

All right, Lewis.

All right, I'll try.

Atlanta Center, this is Transstate 116.

This is Atlanta Center. Go ahead.

I have a message for Jacksonville
Operations.

Please relay.

Our fuel situation approaching
Jacksonville will be critical. We must

there.

We request immediate assistance from the
FBI and police upon landing.

Do you wish repeat?

Negative.

We have a message from the FBI to the
hijacker.

We have his daughter here.

Will you request he speak with her?

Marsh speaking.

But, Russell... Yes?

We have your daughter on the radio from
Atlanta operations.

She wants to talk to you.

No. No conversations. Not at all.

Inspector Erskine, go ahead.

You got any ideas how we can convince
this guy we'll never make it to Cuba?

Well, I was wondering, can you feather
one or two props? It might convince

Hazard to crash if you don't make a
landing.

Can you do this and still maintain
enough power for your final approach?

It's Matty's.

Where are you, Matty?

Jacksonville. I just heard the news. The
plane's been hijacked. Must have been

hit.

We heard it, too, just a few minutes
ago.

And, Matty, the FBI picked up Eddie
Floyd outside Atlanta.

They took Ginny away from him.

Well, even if the plane puts down like
they said to refuel, there'll be FBI all

over the place.

They'll be there to pick up Hazlitt, try
to get him off the plane.

Well, I guess that's it.

Oh, that's not it, Matty. You've got a
job to do. I expect you to do it.

But that's suicide.

Yes, Matty, it is.

If you don't do it.

I'm doubling the price we agreed on.

I don't have to remind you about the
oath you took.

No, sir, but... You're the last shot
we've got left, Matty.

We're counting on you.

Yes, sir.

No, no one could ever make me believe
this.

Oh, I know what business my father is
in.

What they say about his reputation.

But I don't know.

It always seemed like they were talking
about somebody else.

My mom was paralyzed for many years from
an accident.

And he never left her.

He always gave me everything I ever
wanted or needed.

How do I reconcile that?

That sweet, loving father.

The man on that plane.

How do I do that?

Tell that captain I'm on my way up.

You tell him with me.

All right.

Captain, what's the matter with that
motor? We have an emergency situation.

The fuel's nearly exhausted. Look for
yourself.

What is it, some kind of a joke?

Look at that engine.

Look at the gauges. What, do we have to
crash to prove it to you?

aircraft according to plan.

We'll refuel.

That's all.

Nobody gets on this plane.

And nobody gets off.

We're about to wound nobody.

Thank you.

Help me. What are you going to do?

I'm going to shove him off the hedge.

You can't do that. It's a 10 -foot
block. He'll die. He'll die anyway if we

leave him here now. Hurry up.

I'd like to come aboard and talk to you.

Unarmed. You got 30 seconds to clear up
before I start shooting.

Then I start with this girl.

Please, I gotta go talk to her.

Let her come.

I didn't give it up.

There's nothing you can do, Jenny.

Just get out of here.

No.

I want to help you.

There's no way.

There's no way. It's too late for me.

Well, what about me?

Is it too late for me?

Because if you let that man die in
there, if you harm... Anybody on that

I won't be able to live through the
shame of it.

It's not your responsibility.

It is.

I'm a part of you.

All my life you've been trying to hide
things from me.

Hands behind your head.

Not going to be seeing you for a while.

You think you could just remember me
from before?

The man on the airplane, the one who was
shot?

He's lucky.

Doctor's got to him in time.

Thank God for that.

What are your plans?

Oh, I guess I'll go back to school.

Try to make a new life for myself.

One of my own.

Is that what you were hoping I'd say?

Something like that.

Walter Haslett was convicted in federal
court of aircraft hijacking, attempted

murder, and interstate gambling. He is
serving his sentences in a federal

penitentiary. Through Haslett's
testimony, federal indictments were

against Peter Dannis, Edward Floyd, and
other members of La Cosa Nostra in Los

Angeles.
