Iszak, Frank2017
Books
On the afternoon of Friday 13th July 1956, seven desperate young people boarded a commercial flight in the People's Republic of Hungary with the intention of hijacking it, diverting it to West Germany and claiming political asylum. They had no weapons, no map and no idea whether the plane carried enough fuel to get them there. One of the seven was Frank Iszak, and this is his story.
