FedEx Flight 705, a McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30, experienced an attempted hijacking on April 7, 1994. Forty-two year-old FedEx employee Auburn Calloway faced termination of employment for lying on his résumé about his previous flying experience with the United States Navy. He boarded the San José, California-bound aircraft, which was loaded with electronic equipment for Silicon Valley, intending to murder the flight crew with hammers and then to use the aircraft for a kamikaze attack on FedEx Headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee. Calloway planned to use blunt force to kill the crew so that the injuries inflicted would resemble those occurring in a plane crash; he wanted to disguise the attack as an accident so that his family would benefit from his $2.5 million life insurance policy. As a last resort, Calloway smuggled a speargun on board in a guitar case. Calloway attempted to disable the cockpit voice recorder to cover his tracks. The two-man flight crew that was supposed to fly that flight had been replaced by a three-man crew, consisting of 49 year-old Captain David "Dave" Sanders, 42 year-old First Officer James "Jim" Tucker and 39 year-old Flight Engineer Andy Peterson. Calloway, a former Navy pilot and a martial arts expert, attacked minutes after take-off. He wounded the flight crew with hammers and fractured the skull of Tucker. A lengthy struggle ensued with the flight engineer and captain. Tucker, also an ex-Navy pilot, managed to control the plane as the three others struggled in the cockpit. By means of extreme aerial maneuvers meant to keep Calloway off balance, the flight crew eventually succeeded in restraining Calloway. Dave Sanders landed the jet safely at Memphis International Airport despite the plane's being loaded with fuel and too heavy to land under normal circumstances. Emergency personnel gained access to the plane via escape slide and ladder. Blood covered the cockpit interior. Calloway pleaded temporary insanity but was sentenced to life without parole on August 15, 1995 for attempted murder and attempted air piracy. He is imprisoned at United States Penitentiary, Atwater Federal Prison in Atwater, California. On May 26, 1994, the Airline Pilots Association awarded Dave Sanders, James Tucker and Andy Peterson the Gold Medal Award for heroism, the highest award a civilian pilot can receive. Due to the severity of their injuries, none of the crew has been certified as medically fit to fly commercially after the incident.

» Aktualizacja: "BlackBerry, Samsungi i HTC też tracą zasięg" czyli twarda linia obrony Apple
Steve Jobs stwierdził, że najlepszą formą zabezpieczenia się przed ewentualną utratą zasięgu w iPhone 4 jest założenie na telefon pokrowca. Poza tym, jego zdaniem smartfony wszystkich czołowych marek też mogą mieć problem z zasięgiem, spowodowany niewłaściwym trzymaniem urządzenia przez użytkownika. Ta ostatnia teza nie spodobała się konkurencji spod znaku Nokii, RIM i HTC.
