A Lebanese man is in custody tonight- charged with hijacking a Spanish Jetliner to Miami.
Authorities believe the 28 year old was able to pull off the bomb hoax by covering a tape recorder with aluminum foil.
The man reportedly left Beirut yesterday and traveled to Madrid by way of Switzerland.
He then demanded his flight today from Madrid to Cuba be rerouted to Miami.
Robert Burns has the story.

((SOUND OF PLANE LANDING.
The Iberia Airlines DC-10s approach to Miami looked perfectly normal, but on-board a Lebanese man was threatening to blow up the plane.
PAUL PHILIP/FBI SPECIAL AGENT THE DEMAND WAS TO COME HERE; HE DID NOT WANT TO GO TO HAVANA; HE WANTED TO COME HERE AND HE GOT HIS WISH...HE'S HERE UNDER ARREST.
On the ground, local police quickly surrounded the plane. That s when FBI negotiators took over, talking directly with 27-year old Ibrahim Saada as the plane sat on an isolated part of the airport.
WHEN THE PLANE LANDED, WE WERE ABLE TO TALK TO HIM BY RADIO. WE TOLD HIM WHAT WE WANTED. ALL HE WANTED WAS TO SURRENDER AND WE SAID, THAT S FINE BY US.
Minutes later, all 200-plus passengers could be seen calmly walking off the plane and boarding busses. The FBI says it found no actual explosive onboard the jet; the threat was apparently just a hoax.
FBI agents took Ibrahim away for questioning, still not really sure WHY the plane was hijacked.
The FBI intervigwed each of the crew members and passengers, describing them as hungry and tired...and anxious to get on to Havana--their final destination.
