Abstract

This paper summarises terrorist attacks on the means and institutions of Yugoslav air transport. These attacks include a total of six aircraft hijackings occurring between 1948 and 1981, the explosion of a bomb onboard a Yugoslav Airlines aircraft above Czechoslovakia in 1972, and several attacks on Yugoslav Airlines offices abroad. In three more cases, aircraft that had been hijacked abroad landed on Yugoslav airports. Besides these, it discusses international and Yugoslav regulations regarding criminal activities against the safety of air navigation. It is based on unpublished archival records, press, and literature.
