C`mon guys, this ain`t so bad... he could have flown it to Norway...
In the local news this morning; An Aeroflot Tu-154 was in 1993 hijacked by 2 Iranian nationals and diverted to Oslo (ENGM).
To make a long story short the Iranians were extradited to Russia to receive their due punishment, but alas they escaped 5 years later and fled to.... you guessed it... NORWAY!!!
where they now have been granted political assylum on grounds that they face a possible death penalty if they are deported back to Iran
This just p****es me off!!!It would be another story if they, on a humanitarian basis, needed assylum, but these people are hijackers and refugees.So what kind of message is this from the Norwegian government?"Take the next plane to Oslo - doesn`t matter if it`s scheduled for Oslo, you`ll figure something out inflight if the destination doesn`t suit you.Just wait for a few years and we`ll grant you assylum.Background?What background?"
