Despite airport precautions, X hijacked an airplane in Chicago and forced the pilot, crew, and passengers to fly to New York.  Upon reaching New York, X shot the pilot before giving up and surrendering to the New York City police.  X was later prosecuted for various crimes stemming from the hijacking.  Cases were filed against X in Chicago, the New York state court, and in New York federal court.  X claims that he could be tried only in a state court in Illinois. 

Will X's claim succeed?  State the reasons for your answer.
