'''Pam AM Flight 103''' was a scheduled passenger flight from London, England to New York City on December 21, 1988 when a bomb placed in a suitcase by former [[Libya]]n intelligence officer Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi exploded in a cargo compartment while the aircraft was over Lockerbie, Scotland.  The deaths of 259 people in the aircraft and 11 residents on the ground shocked the world; the release in 2009 of Al Megrahi from prison by Scottish officials - and his hero's welcome in Libya - outraged both governments of the United States and Britain. Futher scandal may soon follow, as BP has been implicated in a deal with the British government over oil drilling in Libya!
