The fact that authorities cut power off Varna was so smart and really helped the hijacker lose recognition with the location the plane was flying over That allowed multiple people to storm towards the hijacker and kill them
I've just watched this Air Crash Investigation episode and my mind is blown at pilots and authorities' collaboration to handle and catch the hijackers! :O
@@battlerog_fr it indeed got hijacked, and they only follow the hijackers' demand, that is until they let 4 commandos in and storm the plane. In the end, 1 hijacker shot dead, the other 3 are detained.
This story is amazing, 2 people disguised as Austrian border guards attempted to negotiate with the 4 hijackers, the lead hijacker found out that they were Bulgarian by there uniforms and were preparing to execute the passengers (the flight attendant was in the bathroom with a hijacker who was going to kill her), the F/O called the police in to storm the plane, the lead hijacker and 2 other hijacker were arrested and the one holding the flight attendant hostage was shot and killed
A Balkan Bulgarian Airlines An-24 was hijacked shortly after taking off at 18:00 local time for a regular flight from Sofia to Varna. Four men, aged from 17 to 22 (Lachezar Ivanov, Krasen Gechev, Ivaylo Vladimirov and Valentin Ivanov), produced knives and took the 40 passengers and crew hostage. They claimed to the passengers that they were recently escaped recidivist criminals and threatened that they would depressurize the plane if an attempt were made to disarm them or impede the takeover. The hijackers proceeded to threaten the stewardess and demanded the plane be diverted to Vienna. A passenger was sent to the cockpit to communicate their demands to the pilot, who in turn relayed them to local authorities and received orders to simulate compliance, while actually maintaining a course to Varna. Meanwhile, authorities cut off all electrical power to Varna, in order to prevent the hijackers from recognizing the Black Sea coast. After landing at the Varna airport, a Bulgarian police officer and an airport worker, who spoke fluent German were disguised as Austrian airport staff as they attempted to convince the hijackers that they were in Vienna and to lure them out of the plane. The hijackers asked for a translator to negotiate their surrender, until one of them noticed that the disguised police officer was wearing a Bulgarian made leather jacket, which led them to panic and threaten to start executing hostages. At this point the crew managed to let four commandos aboard the plane through a hatch in the luggage compartment. The commandos stormed the plane, disarmed and arrested three of the hijackers. The only remaining hijacker, Valentin Ivanov, had locked himself in the airplane bathroom and threatened to kill the stewardess. Two more commandos entered the plane through the passenger hatch, kicked in the bathroom door and shot Ivanov as he attempted to kill his hostage. Ivanov was the only victim of the incident. The stewardess, having sustained a wound in her neck and bleeding heavily, was quickly transported to a nearby hospital and made a full recovery.
@@sunnyfon9065 i would love too, but im waiting for them to be uploaded on either dailymotion or facebook because other sites requires login, while RU-vid sometimes have out of sync parts and displays random scenes rather than continuing with the story
Es el primer accidente o incidente aéreo de la serie en ocurrir dentro de la antigua Unión Soviética porque lo del vuelo 007 de Korean Air fue una incursión en espacio aéreo restringido
This has to be one of the most genius hijackings (not hijackings but hijacking attempts, like how they managed to stop the hijacker) after reading the Wikipedia!
The flight attedant got Knifed and Was bleeding She was Transported to local hospital and survived But hijacker Got killed While he was To kill Her And also She Was on the Episode

Hey, can you put “Comedy is Over” by Dalibor Krigovsky for “Mystery over the Mediterranean” because it would be the final episode for season 23? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xno-_WagH34.html
I hope he puts Farewell Life in flight 804 To do some sort of "Farewell to Season 23" because this was the best season of all the series, but S24 will be charged with even better stuff (like the leaked United 811 Remake)
The hijackers wanted to go to Vienna but the plane had to fly to Varna, they did not have enough fuel to fly to Vienna the pilot them said "we dont have enough fuel, we will have to Istambul to get more fuel. One of the four hijacker went into the bathroom with the flight atendant and they realized that they all lied, they landed in Varna. Them on eof the hijacker screamed "kill her". And then a swat team member went in and told the hijacker to let go, but he did not, after that the swat team member shot the hijacker and one of the four hijackers got sentenced to 10 years in prison. The one who got sentenced to 10 years injured the flight atendant because she was not silent as they wanted.
@@Canadianaviator2The hijacker locked himself in the lavatory with the flight attendant. He threatened to kill the attendant, but the 2 commandos kicked in the lavatory door and shot the hijacker. The flight attendant was injured, but she was made a full recovery later in the hospital.
The cause of this was hijacking, 4 terrorist inside Antonov AN-24B tried to hijack the Antonov and crash it but the pilot saved 44 occupants because of fighting against that hijackers/terrorists.
