Unexplained Mysteries That Have Still Never Been Solved

Stealing A Plane

The 2003 Theft, then disappearance of a Boeing 727. Always been interesting to me because of how big of an airplane it is, like yeah small GA planes have gone missing over the years and never found, but something as big as a 727 is just weird.

The most reasonable explanation is that the plane probably crashed into the ocean hence why it hasn’t been found, but there have been massive resources put into the incident and they’ve literally found no trace of it at all.

Generally if a plane that large were to crash in the ocean they’d at least have some idea, but it’s just as likely based on the evidence they’ve found (quite literally nothing) that it landed in the desert as it did in the ocean.

Also while it’s feasible to figure out how to fly one with just basic flying skills, looking at guides, videos and knowing the basic limits of the airplane, starting up a plane like that and successfully getting it into the air with one person (the other guy who stole the plane had zero flying experience),

Who from what I’ve read had only flown small single props, makes it even more interesting.
