“Cabin crew, prepare for takeoff.” As soon as the pilot utters those words, you completely submit yourself to them. You know for a fact you’re in their hands, literary and figuratively. An anxiety and excitement grip; being 30,000ft in the air does that. But deep down, you want to land. You want to touch earth again. You want to walk. The passengers of Indian Airlines IC 814 were no different. When the captain of that flight uttered “Cabin crew, prepare for takeoff,” from Kathmandu Airport’s tarmac, the 178 passengers must’ve felt the same anxiety, and excitement. They must’ve wanted to walk. But they did not. Of those 178 passengers, 5 were terrorists, committed to hijacking this Airbus A300. This is the story of the airplane that never landed in Delhi. This is the story of the Kandahar Hijacking.
