Conservative Democrat & Downing of 007

Korean Air Lines flight 007, a Boeing 747 passenger jet, was shot down by Soviet air-to-air missiles on September 1, 1983, near Sakhalin Island, Russia, killing all 269 persons on board. The flight originated in NYC and was en route to Seoul from refueling in Anchorage, Alaska, when it strayed more than 200 miles (322 km) from its scheduled path and entered Soviet airspace. Soviet authorities claimed that the plane was on an intelligence-gathering mission for the United States, though no evidence supported the allegation. The incident occurred during heightened tensions during the Cold War and further degraded U.S.-Soviet relations.

McDonald was also known for his opposition to gun control, his support for pro-life causes, and his advocacy for a strong national defense.
His death in the downing of Korean Air Lines Flight 007 was a significant event in American politics and had a lasting impact.
