My dear anthony now so dearly. What were we usually yeah? The fuck is happening, gooden dave goods in the regular thing, you're listening to the dollar, It is an american history fog, each week, areas story from american history to my friend gareth reynolds, who has no. I The topic is going to be about when people say it is not very good.

As Dave. Okay, someone or something is tickling. Is it four five and this is not going to become a particularly quiet, uptown, all our way of life, a bunch of religious virgins, go to mingle and do what ray campbell and michigan my for the April seven, oh boy, language, one! Ninety four, oh shit, okay, to eat! Oh well! This is a tough start. Seventy four! I'm pretty drunk Jesus, and I look it up sure. Let's take a little pause, why don't you tell some people something? What. Anything come on eleven eleven liven up? Can we can we do, people about the hay through its people about the but yeah overdue? Ok

it doesnt. What we'll talk about during the vamp session. We are doing a book you, the dial up, is doing a. at our book, will be out. Probably this summer. No, it's it's it'll, be out in two thousand. Seventeen it'll be out in two thousand and seventeen, but we'll be done with it. The summer yeah and it's going to be pretty great and we're pretty excited yep and the art so far is fantastic. Oh and the arts the arts I was showing over the artisan when the other night like baby pictures, Like isn't that amazing blossom? I know it's April's, nineteen eighty four ready fedex flights, Even if I d DC, ten was scheduled to depart meant tennessee for a normal package. Delivery flight to san Jose the delicious start. The play

leave a bit at three p m. In the afternoon the crew consisted of captain David Sanders, first officer, Jim Tucker and flight engineer, Andy petersen. I mean those are the widest names. Yet these are these. The widest of the white. I made my god Got on board, there were surprised to see us calloway sitting in the engineer station in full, like you're doing pre flight procedures. Ok, so was normal for fedex employs two jump seat. see is the term that is given new poyser hop on a plan and then again take a trip somewhere. So some you're fedex, employ you just hop plain and then you can go. Take a free flight. Basically, okay, that's pretty cool! So that's a common like thing sure what happened you get on a plane that big guy but they're, usually not the flight suit, and it's also weird finding them

Engineers station, I was gonna, say flights are right. Ok, I was in a say, actually a serious breach of protocol of head, but the crew said nothing. an callaway got up without saying a word, giving the sea to the actual flight, attendant flight engineer and appears as Petersen went. There is no more a teen. He found the circuit breaker for the cockpit voice or quarter had been tripped. The circuit, Your brain turned off the circuit, breaker, okay, so Petersen reset the breaker, so the voice recording was functioning and of our colleague was employed as a flight engineer, forfeit acts He had gone to stanford university and he learned to fly in the navy, but currently he had a problem. The company had learned his regiment had been,

pushed a boy overstating is flying experience in the navy, specifically the reporting of his flight hours of and fedex at scheduled, a disciplinary hearing which was to take place. The next day I'm starting to get a little concerned about what he was doing up there. Early yeah now it'll be fine. Well, maybe he just wants a lack of like a flight to just like take his mind off of things like you'd like if or maybe in a bad mood. I'm going to go for a nice drive up in the hills right, it's like that right. Well, it isn't like that. So called a cab calloway was looking at a possible terminate termination. In his mind, he was definitely going to be fired. That's what he thought. Okay, Andy! is being singled out for being a black man tat, while he was among the three widest pilots on earth. Thank you.

that's probably why they didn't say shit. They were like whatever you want. Man godspeed. My brother of Russian has said that sorry that he had, he had originally been scheduled to be on this flight. As the flight engineer right. But then they found out. He was lying pilot. He put the lion fly, but kelly and his crew had gone over the max A number of flying hours by one minute the day before so he couldn't fly on his day. Okay, so he did sign himself to to get in the jumpsuit. You know and do that, okay, he is supposed to be on the plane, but he was formerly supposed to be in the in the cabin right. Okay, so he's not just a passenger and he went and he strapped himself into the jumpsuit just outside the cockpit for the taking. The play took off was been flown by co pilot, Jim Tucker. There was no ok, they didn't they weren't freak.

We're just like. Oh whatever he was just playing pilot for a minute yeah then yeah they didn't and the the circuit breaker didn't to that. He actually left he actually the guy the actual flight engineer left and then, when he came back the circuit breaker flip again and he turned it once yet. and this is why I assume, just a ghost plane. Now he looks back in regrets retrospect. Ok, let's get outta here that he can look back cause. I was turning to worry about what is going to happen now calibre had prepared for the slight for He started rearranging as financial affairs. He had forty thousand with security sent to his ex wife any centre, cashiers checks totalling nearly fourteen thousand dollars. They divorced forty years before they had kids He went to fedex, employ benefits the fedex employ benefits, office and change. The

beneficiaries on his two point: five million dollar life insurance policy. Then he put to claw hammers too Sledge merits a knife and a spear gun into a guitar case and brought it on board. The play is he jason bourne what make em to claw hammers through sledge ballots, a knife and a spear gun. gotta get some whales and build a wall on a the target. Was that movie desperado the yeah yeah totally? This is desperado. He put the guitar case with the cruise luggage when the plane reached

I know you played guitar yeah it's in here from crane korean guy was just like thirty little ones in their metal ones. No more fucking questions, okay, so the plane reaches cruising altitude about thirty minutes into the flight and kelly gets up which is allowed to do now walks over to his luggage and take it opens The guitar case and pleasant place. Little Jeremiah takes a claw hammer. I don't nirvana about that. One may wonder why he had a claw hammer and malice and things of that nature. Instead of maybe a gun, machete riots and

dude, I what its? Yes, I'm very odd assortment of, where I'm very puzzled by his plan. Well, when the plane crashes, victims are often cover covered and blunt trauma wounds from getting hit by things, woe Any word from a hammer or a mallet, or even a spear gun would be consistent. What is he doing crash? But he ok, but aren't how I held under the carpet. The crew were look. out the window and captain David Sanders pointed to the new madrid fault line. This is from the voice recorder, sanders? You see others trees there, that's it Tucker. I know it, but I wonder about that. when and although you know the stuff over there, you know where it's flat and you cross over that, and I wondered about that. That's up.

Part of the no vacuum uplifting. All that, what's with what's That's further western it Sanders year, tucker, nines and two's. Here, Peterson after take off is complete. Do you do you live over in arkansas dave or now? I live in a fisher bill, ah fisher ville, then, in parentheses, sounds of hammer blows striking pilots what the fuck peterson owl, tucker, god, oh shit, Sanders god, almighty petersen, Tucker. What the fuck are you doing Sanders god grow ground god, almighty god, god, god Tucker gotta, get I'm ganem saturday she's gonna kill us tucker, get him sanders. Gotta get em

there's an I care. Callaway entered quietly and then just started swinging first hit petersen with a few blows and then moved tucker and hidden repeatedly when Sanders turned he saw they were both soaked in blood and slumped in their chairs. And cow is now moving towards him. My guy too bad flat rate love that crazy callaway, swung it sanders, who deflected some of the blows while others hit him and then the plane started lurching That is insane. What's the auto

Warning system started repeating bank angle bank angle, so cruel pain is fucking, losing it and then tucker and peterson post somehow recovered enough to get up and started to attack, Calloway now, calif and suddenly he's in the cockpit and he's surrounded by the three guys. So he starts swinging the hammer right. One time I can keep back you're just there. This is insane. I think I know what you wanted to disable the recording device. I think it's. This. Don't you think so the crew is fighting back, while the would try to reach out and write the airplane like in a movie finally, Callaway was forced to retreat from the cockpit Jesus. So these guys just all bloody feeding, hammers

they were talking to put the huge bucket, but there's a where you live again. may you me. There's nothing worse than a surprise hammering if you live in arkansas, I don't live at getting treated like a nail trim. Think that would be great if one of the guys just kept yelling, I'm not in there I think we're were not nails. Ok, savage tucker petersen were now just trying to figure out what the fuck heads happened. We all are trying to serve we've been hit in the head with a hammer generally. Ok. Does it help you to think okay? So, let's just take a minute and let's just stay committed, my head, I'm having trouble think I think Brain ok, listen to me! Ok, so they haven't really taking place. The god gave the guitar you can see desperado thinking, desperado the cockpit, so

Do you live in arkansas by the way? What got an answer on that? As that we're doing? Where do you were passed? You do live there in. I have an ant and I use it is banned every other summer that time I'll get to it later, you're right so so they tried to gather their thoughts and they did didn't think the radio. Yet when calla came back fuck this time with the spear gun I mean imagine your god: I've got a spear gun. What's he got, makes the cannon and he yelled sit down sit down. This is a real gonna kill you Jesus, Sanderson Tucker, then yell, repeatedly petersen to get callaway but Petersen was a mess, He was bleeding from a dozen wounds on his face and head. He was barely conscious and what unable to actually see callaway because of all the blood good buddy

was able to see the steel of the spear gun, which was very close to his face. That's not good calloway just kept yelling that he was going to kill them peterson, then what I still don't fully understand. His plan will get there okay, and then grabbed the weapon and jumped on topical callaway or leaned autumn. Either way just like put all its weight is blue, like assuming you didn't jump army him, he pages tyler burdened him like an fight club, ecologically minded him with blood back and you like that, Then Sanders jumped into the fight. Meanwhile, Tucker went to control the play good, I'm glad somebody like you know we need, even though the

outside of his body was no longer moving. Writing. He was paralyzed from blows to the head with a hammer that had sent parts of his skull and was brain god. Tucker also knew his two wooded crew. Mates would not be to fight off callaway for very long most because callaway was trained, martial arts and they both had new holes in their heads, yeah yeah yeah, kidding they're, bringing fistula guitar fight. That fray so he definitely bad ass part of the deal he pulled the control, all the way up to his chow and role that to the left he just instigated apparel, that's amaze! Every DC ten that was going foreigner miles an hour. It so he's harrison fort that so ass. You, you can't move. left side, but he's do a barrel, gonna fucking dc to its which are made about

the way, though, if you have a package on this plain forget about early factor. The plan is not designed for apparel role. The voice recordings reveal that petersen and sanders were shouting get in here to each other. While everyone thought. then the plane rolled first the plane went up and then it rolled and the three so when it went up there, if they all went back into the galley and then, as is rolling their flying around weightless immensely and together in a heap and then flyer, because it goes from like four g's to no gs yet wow and then the plane was upside down at nineteen thousand feet. What a cheese turns out Tucker was an experienced combat flight instructor. the fact is doing has left this dude I'll. Do it left hand, is hugh glass in a cockpit, so

upside down upside down. Now the extravagant gary brought a pretty this white guy. I know right amorous. Now there The controllers are watching all this at these. How we do it up there, fedex one. Oh one buzz, you bought me a drink, a little bit not at their guys, Zena upside down and think I'm a screen already, so they desperately start trying to call the crew. Meanwhile, in the galley the planes upside down and the three men are fighting on. See what she's Dave walk. Calloway hit centres in the head with a hammer again now Tucker's plan was to use the g force to toss them around the plane until I get land. So he knows these guys cannibal

more rail he's just gonna, keep fucking barrel rolling out our role in it and take left and right go up and down to to make them just give follow all over the place. That's his plan, so he kept the planes flight unpredictable. So Kelly couldn't finish off his attack. He put the plane into a vertical dive, but then realized he couldn't get the throttle Joe should dive and he can't slowed down because he's. and he goes oh. I can't move the right side of my body and the throttles over on the right, the sweet god so he's just nosedive now he just knows do good but puts good tho. Those guys are all like pressed against the back. That's true. I mean why there were that right where you just like pinned up against the wall. There progress still talk and shit like mother fucker when we get out of here, I'm gonna take the hemorrhage shove it up your ass, so the planned kept accelerated.

Is it? Do you play guitar deal or you could target? Can you play or what the plan was now going faster than any dc ten? if are gone, and it was actually not built for this kind of speed. It was going so fast it were. It was going past all the plane's instruments like in a movie. You know the the the it goes like. The plane goes to five hundred miles an hour, but it's way it's like at the top of the dial right. Okay, I'm all right. Okay, right, it's just the varying the needle. The frame of the plane would not be able to continue at this speed. So it's creaky and it's doing the whole thing somehow Tucker was able to get the plant out of a dive than uses left hand reach across and slow the plane down. Then he called air traffic control in memphis, How are you guys say that take a minute? What's up and how you guys do. What's up, hey memphis, you still with me parentheses struggling. In the background,

intelligible from Tucker Then shouting, then listen a centre struggling in the background data. Give me a heading to memphis struggling in the background nigeria roger this is an emergency than unintelligible, struggling in the background from the rear of the plane girl. He had let go the spare Jesus, the immunity of your picture, like little stuff- and that's one of the- I just said- let go of the spear now that doesn't it couldn't be. What are you guys? We heard spear or we are there- do we have like dying It is on this But I was not here beer. What do you mean beer muslim, their drunk through your right todd, their drug one zero thousand ok gimme buys, whereas memphis ok say my direction to Memphis. Just keep me talking. Ok, sanders, yells gm

tucker to centre. Yet we need an ambulance and armed intervention, unintelligible loud voice in the rear of the plane. Petersen. Yells put it on autopilot tucker I've got it petersen help son of a bitch is biting me. Oh my god he's out a hammers he's ever Tucker turned the plane around and headed back. While they cleared the runway in Memphis, he took the playing down the five thousand feet to avoid explosive decompression and back sanders and petersen kept yelling for Tucker. To put it on autopilot, and

then they could barely keep going from all their wounds. So they're, like fucking pleasing to the eye and they've, been hitting my share. Twelve. What we've been focusing on the cockpit I mean in the back of the play. There is just constant beatings being tossed out. which sucked tucker continued. Do you the play from side to side to keep callaway off his feet. He finally got the plan on autopilot and then limped back to see what was happening there. He saw peterson was on top callaway, while sanders held a spear gun to his throw my guide everybody's, a hero. Well, you guys if we ve coming to america, this back tucker took the gun and held it on callaway and centres, went to the cabin buckles buckle themselves in and got ready to land the plant

They were just like all right. Let's why these packages never try to learn the plane, calloway made one last attempt he swung wildly at them and then try to make a break for the cabin while tucker and petersen Kelvin This is like dragging them across the callaway. Then gouged one of tucker's eyes out. I thought we were almost done petersen then Tucker a hammer and he hit callaway with it, ending the fight. He risked his eye out. Sanders landed, the plane will gouged its way posted in them

Sadly, the plane as emergency vehicles, insecurity, waited a paramedic, quickly, boarded and founded the plane completely covered in blood and gore there's blood from there's blood everywhere, like the whole cabin that the whole galley everywhere we just fucking. covered in blood. My cat centres and petersen were laying on top of callaway Tucker was sitting in the co pilots chair shaking security, handcuff callaway and took him away, will hit the fedex hearing, now is going to be way worse, he's made it a lot worse. It's going to have he's. I mean this is another black ball against. This is like they're, they are there and they're like look. We were actually ready to give you a pass. say just takes some more hours of flying in normal. Let you be a pie, but the whole.

Think about when he tried to kill everybody, and now we have to suspend you two weeks. Okay, we don't want to, but you need to learn a lesson. You can't take spears into a plane and look in every every. Have you seen clockwork orange because we're going to make you watch castaway all right. This is the prequel, the castaway, the next day, the fbi. I went to calories apartment to investigate and learned of his plan. He wanted to take control the plane using blunt force. Weapons then crashed the plane into fedex headquarters. Oh my god! If successful the company, we would have been ruined and it would look like they'd all died in an accident. His kids and wife would be taken care of with his life insurance policy.

So all the good, that's a terrible plan. Everyone would have very suspicious when the planet hit fedex on paper right. It sounds a little more ok, because the truth is an execution. If you can't get the recording thing off, you're fucked, yet it doesn't. You know that they'll be able to find the recording, and they will know that you were see that the pilots got the recording thing, so he tripped he trip the a trip. The breaker, but because of turn back on. All he would have had to do was fly. I think thirty minutes he turned it off and then fly thirty minutes, and then it would stop. Oh really so he could. He could have just waited after he killed them or whatever it was gonna do. Okay, get good plan so that information found in the apartment was very detailed, including a list of the crew of their names and a list of his weapons, and he left a will on the bed weight.

If you leave a will on your bed, yet it isn't that a flag for foul play, I feel like it is as well as leaving a list. The cruel does happen. All of that. All of that is crazy. It all seems like he didn't cover that base very well he's on the plane he's like I'm sure I put it away. I did I put data I am so sure that I could a god I feel like. If I did I I did. I did I've just getting myself in one of those think I let the list of our guide. Whatever we do and all of my life insurance stuff I think I left my will on the bed now well now that that picture of the plant with a big crossword on the wall and then an arrow pointing down to the fedex headquarters, and I wrote I love you- p s and blood and feces on the wall. I will fly light into fedex headquarters. Like I blew it, should it cleaned out the ages has never

well, they well, but they do so calloway were. The postal service should to turn this into a campaign, we'll just get the shit there get it there that we don't hire crazy lunatics who have spear access post office, no hammer, it's butt stuff, as our employees don't bludgeon other employees with the hammers. Well, okay, never actually we're just as bad kelly pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and the judge was like yeah. No nobody, The jury convicted him to count indictment of attempted aircraft, piracy and air france a flight operations, and it was, as to life in prison with no parole. He is currently in a federal penitentiary in Victorville California. You know who else is in prison in victorville, the guys from the Pendragon episode

dude dared if they're playing dominoes. Oh my god, what are you in for we were going to put a laser up on top of a mountain and have our own kingdom. Oh man, I was gonna, fly a plane into the fedex building. I tried to kill three pilot coworkers and then fly a fedex plane into fedex. That's a better idea. There yeah we both have the same, takes different different vision and now. Captain centres had multiple lacerations to his head was stabbed. the right arm and had a dislocated jaw. His right ear was almost completely severed, sounds like a radium girl. So I remember he wasn't just hitting him with the hammer part of the hammer. It was a claw hammer see results yeah. I know it's quantity, yeah, Jim Tucker's. Suddenly I'm surprised you didn't get it done right These are very aggressive. Weapons just goes to show you that maybe the hammer is not as great as we think it is to the clock

he's fucking he walks in did look. If you told me I walk into a room and I hit a guy three times in with a hammer. there is another guy, those in my I bring those guys. Yes, you put across the room yet come off, so clearly a hammer is not at all. It's meant to be. You know I'm in here I think we're we're sniffing around our moral, Jim Tucker's skull was severely fractured, including a very large hole. He would slowly recover from his right side, paralysis, but would have him good use of his right arm and leg for the rest of his life Jesus and he lost sight in the eye. Calloway gouged, Annie Peterson also suffered several skull fractures, as well as a severed temporal artery. Oh wow, so he's bleeding out I mean that's crate is bleeding from braehead bleeding out and yet now that's the worst kind of bleeding your head

just keeps pumping because it wants to get buddy your brain, it doesn't it's not like. We gotta shut her down no yeah you're flying a plane, while it's like the wifi, The total damage to the point was eighty eight hundred thousand dollars In nineteen, eighty four, the three men were awarded the gold medal for heroism. The airlines, pilots association, that's the highest. civil pilot. A civilian pilot can get. Nothing have been clear to fly commercial aircraft and they won't be, but James Tucker has gone back to recreational flying the pie involved in the struggle is still flying today, but we will be phased out in two thousand. Eighty Jesus, that's crazy it's good right, that's crazy! Let's show you a picture. Oh my god, a picture. I do like a good picture. I've always loved a picture.

trying to find a nice bloody picture? Oh well spoiler! Well, this is they made a movie out of it. I guess cause that's yeah. It's called snakes on a plane. They changed I'm just after, I don't think so, I was real or based on anything real. You know I mean well now. Yeah there's a claw hammer on those mother, fucking plane. I can find to give me something yeah. I came find the pictures of him before but wow. I did find a picture of the redhead from madman and in laundry look at that you're well underway, I came up with blood of flights every five. Well, that's good for

or do you know, you're the first picture under the search, maybe she's in the movie I dunno. What was the movie but there's just pictures of of there's pictures of what looks like a moving, but I dunno they must have. I mean how good could the movie have been not good. Unless the the shirt bloody shirt- oh my god, just ass, he spoke barbecue all over him, so maybe he was eating from his ear. He he maybe he just had ribs wrapped up. Oh my god- oh my god. Oh my god, oh my dear But you know I gotta say: pilots are fucking. Awesome, pilots are pretty good at it. Can we just say fuck yeah amazing pilots are here because you put these guys in school.

yes, sally sullen merger family that shit to mean just fucking amazing doing to bear all the deasey turn. That is not to do this. What we gotta do right now, upside down the only thing where, where reality matches movies, that will this mean everything you just said sounds like like it a lot of that was move. We are doing now come on rail. No, you would be a little which isn't it come. Oh yeah flip it upside down. Throwed on autopilot. I you thought on twitter, the dollop foes miss graeme, dott podcast, we're also on facebook, anything else, nope, patriot patriotic yeah, if you're a patriot, please head over there to the dollar per patron per per per per page. Where santa card. Thank you.
