The Ethiopian Airways hijack is well documented.........Capt. Abate is alive and well; he is alive to tell his story. Looks like he had been hijacked before the ill fated flight and so he was quite " ready " to handle the incident. Also, I guess the Ethiopian govt and the airline have nothing much to hide about that tragedy, unlike the Malaysian gomen which has heaps to hide from investigators if they do allow Discovery or Nat Geo to make research and investigations.
