Gentlemen:
On Monday, March 13, 1972, at about 4:25 p.m. I called your office to advise that two or three weeks ago I ran across the name "D. B. Cooper" in a Grays Harbor County Superior Court case.
I am enclosing a copy of the return of service which is on file in that case. The original signature is still in the clerk's file and is signed in ink.
I felt probably this wouldn't be of any benefit to you or that someone else would have reported the circumstances, but finally con- cluded that I should at least make it known to you.

In contacting Northwest Orient Airlines officials concerning this reward, Minneapolis should bear in mind that the greater the reward the more public interest generated. If Northwest Orient Airlines is not interested in providing such a reward, the insurance carrier that reimbursed Northwest for the $200,000 taken by Unsub in this matter should be contacted in a discreet manner and their interest in possibly providing this reward determined.

ARMED AND DANGEROUS
Synopsis: To outline a three phase investigative plan concerning evaluation of recent DNA profile.
Details: Over thirty years, more than one thousand possible subjects have been processed by Seattle with the assistance of virtually every Field Division. Most were quickly eliminated, some required extensive investigation to eliminate, while some remained of interest and could not be included or excluded through normal means. To date, the hijacker of Northwest 305, who parachuted from the aircraft in southern Washington on 11/24/1971 with the $200, 000 ransom, has not been identified. As airplane hijacking was a capital offense at the time, DOJ has recently advised that no statute of limitations exists. This remains the only unresolved hijacking in U.S. history.
During 2001, advancements in sensitivity of DNA PCR/STR testing reached a point that resubmission of an item believed handled and worn by the UNSUB in this case was deemed worthwhile. Recently, SA :unselected: was advised that testing of this item (a black necktie) has resulted in recovery of male nuclear DNA, which has been

A comprehensive review of each subject subfile (1, 057 currently) will be conducted to identify those not strongly eliminated at the time.
3. From those identified in phase two, leads will be set to obtain DNA samples from the suspect, subjects children, or other appropriate personal items belonging to him. The intent is to be very selective with these leads.
It is anticipated that some of those contacted in phase three will contact the media. Receiving offices will be instructed to refer any media inquiries to the Seattle media coordinator. The specific source of the recovered DNA will not be discussed.

D.B. Cooper puzzle: The legend turns 30
By Susan Gilmore Seattle Times staff reporter
If you believe a persuasive San Diego cabdriver, D.B. Cooper was a drifter and card player who died of a cocaine overdose in California 15 years after skyjacking a Northwest Airlines jet between Portland and Seattle.
If you believe an equally insistent Florida realtor, D.B. Cooper was her late husband, a chain-smoking ex-con who revealed his true identity to her six years ago as he lay dying of kidney disease in a Pensacola hospital.
And if you believe the FBI, the notorious skyjacker, after parachuting out of the plane at 10,000 feet with a 21-pound satchel of ransom money strapped to his chest, died in the

"There's no way," said Thomas, 50, a survival expert. " ... A lot of what (Jo Weber) is claiming came right out of a book."
Thomas pulls out a well-worn map and traces the forests around Washougal, Clark County. This, he believes, is where Cooper's remains rest.
But he is willing to entertain the notion that Cooper survived, so he walks the woods, sometimes with his grandchildren, searching for signs under branches and along creek banks.
"Unsolved cases really intrigue me. This is my life," Thomas said.
Some clues still kept secret
When Cooper commandeered the Northwest jet, skyjacking was hardly a novel crime. More than 25 were attempted in 1971 alone, but he alone did not get caught.
The following year, screening devices became mandatory in airports, and Himmelsbach said exit doors on airliners were modified with a device named the Cooper Vane so they could not be opened in midflight.
The FBI won't talk about suspects in an open case. But

he had used, reminded her forcefully of :selected: She also realized that he had all the skills needed to carry out the skyjacking, that he had had a motive to do so, and that he could have had the opportunity. It was only because of this - and not because of the odd behavior of mentioned above -- that we made an effort to locate the stewardess who had had so much contact with Cooper during the commission of the crime. However, when we were unable to locate her, we felt our chances of getting anywhere with the case were remote, and we turned our attention back to our original concerns. Nevertheless, we remained convinced that there was a possibility that X was guilty of the skyjacking.

I believe that this data package, if followed up, may enable that closure. My interest in the case started when I was transferred to Seattle in June of 1972 and the D.B. Cooper sensation was still very much in the news. In addition, the story of the Falcon and the Snowman was released a short time later and I was employed in an environment similar to that of the story. I did not relate the stories at that time.
When I saw the pictuure (attached) in our local paper of it rang a very loud bell in my memory. He was D.B. Cooper as shown in the composit drawing of 1972. I then started the timeline relating :unselected: and Cooper and became more and more convinced that these names were very posibily the same man.
Some questions I have not been able to answer from the internet are:
o Did do any sport parashute jumping in highschool or shortly thereafter?
o Where was his friend in '71 and '72 -- They had always worked together.
was paroled form federal prison in I have no data on him since that time. I believe that if this data turns out to be true, and maybe will disapear during parole

He had used the pseudonym in the letters to disguise his true identity and rented a post office box in Hopkins, Minnesota, to receive any return correspondence from the F.B.I. He had kept his actions and suspicions from his wife and children because he had mentioned his suspicions to them previously and they thought it was a silly notion. He did not want to go through that again.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received your letter dated January 31, 2005 requesting information about the investigation of the person who hijacked Northwest Airlines flight #305 on November 24, 1971.
Unfortunately, since this case is still pending, information from our case file cannot be provided. However, we have enclosed some public government information that was widely circulated at the time.
Good luck with your

UNCLASSIFIED RECORD SE 164A-81 :unselected:
Per your request, I will address each of the 13 items requested by Granite Productions. However, in general, and in the past we have directed most inquiries of this nature to public source information that is everywhere on this case. Much of it is not entirely accurate, but this helps us weed out people who claim first hand knowledge. Many people have viewed such shows as the Granite Productions proposal and used it as a basis to claim their husband/brother/etc. was Dan Cooper. Many people have submitted FOI requests. One FOI lawsuit is pending now. The only exceptions to this strategy in my knowledge was for a two 'mainstream shows (i.e. History Channel) in which we did live interviews. Even in those cases we never commented on the evidence we had, or provided any documents from the case file.

An investigation of his work record would help to rule him out as a suspect if he was at work when the high jacking went down or had not taken any vacation then. He may have left the job at Rocky Flats before the high jacking but I just do not remember anymore.
Since then the Rocky Flats plant has been completely dismantled and the buildings all torn down and disposed of at a contaminated land fill. Dow Chemical Company was the prime contractor at the time so it would be necessary to check with their main office in Midland Michigan as they no longer have an office in Colorado.
About the time of D.B. Cooper there was a young man who worked with us at Rocky Flats nuclear plant between Golden and Boulder Colorado. He was working in the engineering office and was about 25 years old. His last name was but I do not remember the first name. It should be easy enough to get the first name from Dow Chemical Company records.
One day he showed us a photo of his wife, all decked out in those underwear type outfits they wear in Karate classes, standing next to the instructor.

He stipulated that PCA had to be run from Monterey in order for him to accept the position of Executive Director.
PCA headquarters was relocated to Monterey, CA in 1960. PCA membership was 859. Gunby served as Executive Director from 1958 ( ?? sources conflict) to 1963.
In 1964, Gunby ran for PCA President and relinquished the Executive Director position. Also in 1964, Parachute Club of America (PCA) was changed to United States Parachute Association (USPA) because the word club did not properly express the stature of the organization. Membership was over 10,000.
USPA presented Gunby with its Achievement Award in 1977. The inscription reads: "A founding spirit who saw the future when others doubted. As author, Executive Director and PCA President, he gave countless hours to build the early framework of our sport."
Gunby was awarded PEIA's (former name of PLA) first Achievement Award in 1981. Don Beck, PEIA Secretary said, "When the Parachute Equipment Industry Association first decided to create an Achievement Award,

Nobody knows. The fate of this first high-jumping hi- jacker remains one of the , most baffling mysteries on the books. After two years of intensive searching, the FBI, says it hasn't a single clue of any kind.
"We really know nothing . more today than we did II p.m. Wednesday Nov. 24, 1971," Julius Mattson, FBI special agent in charge at Portland, said this week.
When the man called Coop- er parachuted from the rear of a Boeing 727 somewhere south of Woodland, Wash.

Enclosed for the Portland Division is one (1) copy of referenced communication.
For the information of the Portland Division, RACKSTRAW has been suggested as a suspect in this matter because he resembles the artist's composite of Unsub, and because of his military background particularly his paratrooper training. He appears to be fully capable of successfully affecting the Norjak hijacking.
