Talk:Japan Air Lines Flight 351

message: What happened to the airplane and crew which flew the hijackers to Pyongyang?  Were they allowed to return immediately to Japan? Cla68 (talk) 06:59, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: North Korea approved the return of JL351 and its crews. They flew from Pyongyang to Haneda directly. Reading Japanese article, I found one interesting sentence. It says one American Pastor was on that plane. But he disappeared in Seoul and didn't seem to fly to Japan with other passengers. -218.221.111.100 (talk) 00:31, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Question on details

message: Additional info:  Kimpo was the "Port of "entry/exit" for all USA military personnel assigned to Korean bases at the time of this incident.  WE American GI's stationed there at the time of the incident were instructed to hide our USAF vehicle, flags(anything American) and ordered to stay in our quarters until directed otherwise.  The S. Koreas were going to attempt to "fool" the hi-jackers into thinking that they had landed in North Korea.  Almost worked, but the hijackers thought that there was to long of a delay before diplomats came out to meet the so called "heroes".  So, the aircraft set there for a couple of days with all types of weapons pointed at it.  Few of us US GI's slept a wink while the situation existed.  Finally, the passengers and part of the crew were released and replaced  by the South Korean or Japan's Minister of Transportation as a hostage.  It has been a while, but I believe the Minister was released after the plane reached the North.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.216.33.108 (talk) 03:52, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Landing of Flt 351 at Kimpo 

message: This is a very interesting article given that there was a Velvet Underground-inspired noise rock band associated with it and two influential and important passengers on this flight. It definitely needs a rewrite, however. I did not know why they did any of this until the end of the section. If anybody is fluent, maybe we could take and rewrite from the Japanese version of this article? Just an idea. Ted (talk) 23:31, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move discussion in progress 

message: According to this documentary with 6.6 M views, they landed in a fake North Korean airport that was actually located in South Korea, but equipped with North Korean flags, North Korean military waiting to honour them, and also the Airport intercom honouring their arrival to fool them into believeing they actually are in North Korea.
When they entered alleged North Korean air space, there were also pretendedly North-Korean fighter jets firing in their direction, but these were reportedly just for show.
The article claims "Despite this, the hijackers quickly realised that they had been tricked", but according to the documentary at 17 minutes, the hijackers were fooled and entered a shuttle bus that was set up to isolate them. Unfortunately, their description mentions no sources.
The end of the video mentioned that "The Insane Hijacking of Japan Airlines Flight 351 (part 2)" would come soon, but it never came.

replies: text: The article also implies that Takaya Shiomi the mastermind, was arrested after the hijacking took place, even though the video states he was arrested prior to it. Iamnotflour (talk) 18:24, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
