Take to the Sky Episode 074: Korean Air Flight 85

In this week's episode of Take to the Sky: The Air Disaster
Podcast, Stephanie shares a lesser known story connected to the
events that transpired on September 11, 2001. Korean Air Flight
85 was preparing for its arrival in Anchorage, Alaska when it
suddenly transmitted a code associated with a hijacking. Over the
course of 90 minutes, officials grappled with whether to let the
plane land or shoot it down as the small town of Whitehorse in
Canada's Yukon Territory prepared for its arrival.
