THE mystery of the man whose audacious crime shocked the world and gave us modern day airport security checks, may finally have been revealed.
Secret FBI files uncovered this week reveal the identity of the daredevil skyjacker who has been mythologised in film, TV and song. For 45 years he was on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, until, in 2016, the agency closed the case in frustration.
But the newly-uncovered FBI documents reveal investigators believed the audacious criminal who leapt from the jet was former US Army pilot Robert Rackstraw – and that he was also an undercover CIA operative.
Robert Rackstraw died in July, aged 75 – and one of the world’s greatest crime mysteries may finally have been solved. Express.co.uk
