Hermínio da Palma Inácio

Hermínio da Palma Inácio (1922, Lagoa, Faro District – 2009) was a Portuguese revolutionary against the Salazar dictatorship. Famously, he hijacked an airplane in Morocco, forced it to fly over Lisbon dropping leaflets calling for free elections. He then allowed the plane to return to Morocco, apologized to the passengers, presented all the ladies on board with a rose, and then vanished.^[1]
