Answer
d. President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

On Dec. 17, 1973, the president of Lufthansa German Airlines received alarming news. Five terrorists had hijacked a Lufthansa 737 jet in Rome, Italy, and were making their way to Athens, Greece, with hostages on board.

Lufthansa’s president ordered into the air his chief pilot for the 737 fleet. Dieter F. Uchtdorf, 33, was to take a small group of emergency personnel and follow the hijacked plane to its destination and negotiate for the release of the plane, the pilots and the hostages. Then he was to fly the hijacked 737 back to headquarters in Frankfurt.

Fortunately, the mission was accomplished without any problems.

I believe the most correct answer would be "None of the above". There is no evidence that Dieter did anything other than fly the released plane home. Even though the statement tries to imply that he had something to do with the negotiations.

Exactly! This has already been confirmed on this board and others. Yet to keep Mormon BullShitting relevant and "not boring" this Dunnism has been once again spouted off as gee whiz hero making of a Toady of the Mormon lordy.
