Part 2/7:
The focal point of the discussion was Continental Flight 321, which had reportedly issued a hijack signal—code 7500—three times during its flight from South Bend to Denver. This code is internationally recognized as an indication of hijacking, prompting immediate concern among air traffic controllers.
Remarkably, after sending the distress signal, the pilot of Flight 321 communicated that “everything was okay.” This dual behavior calls into question the true circumstances on board. What led to the pilot to signal a distress while simultaneously asserting that there were no issues? Such contradictions spark curiosity and underscore the necessity for thorough investigation into these events.
