In aviation, there are few people as well-known as the infamous D.B. Cooper, who has shocked, captivated, and confused investigators and the public since he vanished from the back of a 737 on November 24, 1971. In this week's episode of Take to the Sky: the Air Disaster Podcast, Stephanie tells the story of Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305, which was in the wrong place at the wrong time for six crew members who found themselves in the hands of the world's most successful skyjacker and part of the history of the only unsolved case of air piracy in commercial aviation.
