21 years ago a Fed Ex Flight Engineer attempted to kill the Captain and First Officer.
Federal Express Flight 705
7 April 1994 - Fedex 705
Flight Engineer Auburn Calloway knew his career was about to end. His employer, Federal Express, had recently uncovered a series of irregularities and outright falsifications in both his original employment application and in hundreds of hours of flight records. He was ordered to appear at a disciplinary hearing in the second week of April, 1994. He understood that the likeliest outcome of such a hearing would be his termination, and subsequently the loss of his FAA flight certification.
His solution was as simple as it was horrifying. He would provide for his family financially, end his own life, and in the process he would punish FedEx in the worst way imaginable.

I remember the Fed Ex flight takeover, but I had no idea it was so brutal... and a barrel roll in a DC-10?
Dang. I never knew about that one.
