In this episode of The Operation, SAS veteran Big Phil Campion reveals his behind-the-scenes role in one of the UK’s most high-stakes hostage crises: the 2000 Stansted plane hijacking.
When Afghan hijackers diverted a passenger jet to London Stansted Airport, the UK’s elite counter terror unit, including Big Phil, was put on immediate alert. With over 150 hostages onboard and tensions rising by the hour, the SAS prepared for a full-blown assault.
Phil shares what really went on during the 70-hour siege, including:
How the SAS covertly prepared for a potential takedown
The delicate balance between negotiation and military intervention
Why Stansted is the UK’s designated airport for hijack responses
The psychological toll of standing by, ready to storm a civilian aircraft
This is a rare insight into Britain’s hijack response protocols, told by a man who was on the front line.
If you thought hostage situations only happened in Hollywood, think again.
