The Sandbaggers Mystery

 Downed by the Russians?

The Missing Writer

In 1980 writer Ian Mackintosh was in an aircraft which was shot down, crossing the border between Alaska, and Russia. Mr. Mackintosh is rememberred for writing the series called The Sandbaggars.

The series is about a government agency which sends agents to rescue people whose discovery would cause a political uproar if it was found, they were doing something in a country, they should not have been in.

One theory about the incident is the plane flew across Russian air space, and saw something it shouldn't have. The pilot logs, didn't record any messages being recorded before the fight ensued. No bodies were released after the plane was pulled from the seas. If the incident was innocent, it still leaves many questions unanswerred
