The Mystery of the Missing Spy Plane

2004

This is the story of a Swedish Air Force DC-3 which disappeared over the Baltic Sea in 1952. More than 30 years later it was revealed that the plane was on a highly classified mission and the Russian government acknowledged that its Soviet predecessor shot down the DC-3. The wreck was never found and its 8 crew remained unaccounted for until 2003, when SAS Captain Anders Jallai set out to find the missing spy plane. This film was shot on site, from the first failures to the final triumph.
