There was an incident, out of Boston around '70, where an armed crew resisted an armed nut with their own weapon...he wanted to press into the Atlantic until fuel ran out. The F/O bled to death, but the crew was able to resist, and return the tube, pax, and surviving crew successfully. Has their ever been another case of an armed crew successfully resisting such an assault?
