ENTER THE Cricket Theater, which last month opened a whim- sical musical based on the fic- tionalized life of an airplane hi- jacker named D.B. Cooper. In real life a man identified by that name commandeered a North- west Airline aircraft in 1971 and later parachuted from the plane somewhere over Washington- state. Cooper He carried with him about 21 pounds in money, totaling $200,000. No one knows what happened to Cooper and none of the money, all of which was marked, has been recovered. Until now, anyway. If you believe what follows, I have a bridge you might be interested in buying. Earlier this year the Cricket, in a promotional gimmick, placed an ad in Time Magazine. "D.B. Cooper, wherever you are," the ad said. "Two free tickets are waiting for you at the Cricket Theater for 'The D.B. Cooper Project.'" TWO REPLIES WERE received - both appar- ently written by the same person. The first, postmarked from Chicago, thanked the Cricket for the invitation. "I won't say I will accept, and I won't say I won't," the writer said.

Airline officials complied with his demand. In return, Cooper allowed the 30 passengers and two of the three stewardesses to leave the plane. He then ordered the pilot. to fly south to Reno, Nev., at 200 mph at 10,000 feet with the wing flaps down. He ordered the crew members to stay in the cockpit. A few minutes later in the dark skies over Oregon, Cooper imlatched the jet's rear boarding ramp and jumped out, wearing one of the parachutes. The plane was flying at 196 mph, the temperature was 7 degrees below zero and there were winds of up to 50 mph. As far as is known, Cooper wore no goggles or protective clothing: Using a computer, the FBI calculat- ed he parachuted into a 24-square-mile area on the Washington-Oregon border near the rugged shores of Lake Mer- win in an area of denise woods and craggy foothills, almost impenetrable in many places. "For him to have gotten down un- injured would have been a tremendous feat or a tremendous stroke of luck," said Himmelsbach. If Cooper died that night, no one has ever admitted finding his body - or the $200,000 ransomn.

The ,man told them that the money was buried under a pile of garbage at the Puyallup dump. Mostly, however, people just have had fun with the D.B. Cooper story. T-shirts with the picture of D.B. Cooper in his sunglasses and bearing the legend, "D.B. Cooper, 'Where Are You?".became popu- lar, and there even was a song written about him. ' The residents of Ariel, Cowlitz County, near where Cooper sup- posedly bailed out, started holding an annual "D.B. Cooper Day" to commemorate the event. The fes- tival, called the "Cooper Caper," featured bear stew and sky divers and attracted more than 800 peo- ple. But not, apparently, D,B .: Cooper, As for the two Federal Bureau of Investigation agents who have been on the case since it began, they say they believe D.B. Cooper probably died the night he went out the plane. "It is my personal opinion that he is dead," said Joseph O'Con- nell, who has retired. "He jumped out of a plane at 10,000 feet on a cold, raw night and he jumped in ani -area densely populated with Douglas fir and ponderosa pine." Ralph Himmelsbach, Portland- F.

it occurred to me that there may be abundant information available that might not ordinarily be pursued in this type of investigation. Accordingly, the following suggestions are offered for your consider- ation: 1. Sediment trapped within the material and surrounding material may provide clues as to the source areas from which the sand and material were transported from. 2. The sediment material may provide a clue as to other likely areas along the Columbia where additional materials might be deposited. 3. Analysis of the local stratagraphy and sedimentology may give an indication of the date that the materials were deposited at the location of discovery, 164-41-1798 SEARCHED SERIALIZE b6 b7C FEB 28 1980 FBI-PORTLAND/2.

Analysis of the abrasion characteristics of the material itself, that is the money bundle, may suggest the distance traveled and thereby give additional clues as to the source from which the material was derived. Significant information may still be available at the site.

the money bundle, may suggest the distance traveled and thereby give additional clues as to the source from which the material was derived. Significant information may still be available at the site. If any samples were taken of material before the local sediment was disturbed, those samples would be very useful in any analysis. Also, photographs may be useful in reconstructing the depositional circum- stance in which the money materials were located. If not, the next time a discovery takes place, care should be taken to acquire the geologic information from the site before excavation takes place. In any case, investigation of the geologic circumstances of the money materials may yield the information as listed above. b6 b7C DB Cooper-43253 :unselected:Oregon BEND,OR + FB 28 PM 199G. 9744 b6 b7C THEJANDO Federal Bureau of Investigation 745 Wall Street Bend, Oregon 97701 DB Cooper-432542/26/80 DIRECTOR, FBI (164-211) (ATTN: PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICE) SAC, PORTLAND (164-41) (P) NORJAK 00: Seattle Enclosed for the Bureau is one packet of newspaper articles collected at Portland, Oregon.

Through the institute's Scientific Detection Program being offered to prospective candidates, the case of alias D. B. Cooper, one of the most renoun cases of the twentieth century, has been selected. Therefore, through the permission and cooperation of the Bureau, the institute proposes to conduct the following case study of: 1. Microanalysis, neutron activation and spectrographic voice identification. 2. Naco analysis, handwriting analysis, hypnosis of victims and voice stress analysis. 3. Data analysis techniques and statistical methods of related crimes occurred in the past. 4. Data collection sources.

B. Cooper." The producers of this motion picture offered a $1,000,000 reward if D. B. Cooper would turn himself in. All calls received on this incident have been totally without substantiation and/or hoaxes. Based upon this, SAC, Portland, has issued firm instructions to complaint and night duty personnel that they are to evaluate any call regarding the skyjacking carefully and not dispatch investigative personnel unless they believe there is good reason to do so. In this way, every effort is being made to avoid useless expenditure of valuable Agent time.

The Northwest Airlines people here have advised that they would be glad to simulate his flight, having'a man jump to see whether the crew experienced the same reaction as recorded on the initial flight, and if the flight recorder records the same movement of the plane. If it did not, then it would appear that there was little use searching in the area we were searching in. If it did have the same reaction, then we would have to search an area approximately 2k miles by 6 miles of virgin timber. I told SAC HELD I thought it would be well if possible to have the same airplane used with the same crew but I did not see any reason for them to actually jump in the same area since it would be too dangerous and we may lose the jumper, but I did think it would be a good idea to simulate it in an area where the jumper could be recovered. He advised he had talked to Mr. NYROP about this and that he had instructed that the crew and plane be put together for this purpose as soon as possible.

2053$ April 15, 1976 MEMORANDUM TO ALL SPECIAL AGENTS RE: COMPUTER SUPPORT TO THE FIELD The main thrust of our computer support effort in the past has been directed at administrative and National Crime Information Center (NCIC) matters. It is now my desire to concentrate more on ways our computers can support the Agent in the Field. This is to make you aware of the computer services that are presently available to you. The Data Processing Section (DPS) of the Computer Systems Division is responsible for working with the Field on investigative matters. Agents with specialized backgrounds have been assigned to this Section and will assist you if some aspect of a case lends itself to computerization. This might be a large volume of records (e. g., checks, cash receipts, purchase orders, personnel records, payroll records, telephone numbers, etc. ) that require sequencing, comparing or calculating, to disclose misappropriations, kiting, lapping, skimming, padding of payrolls, identities of suspects, conspiracies, etc.

ARTIST'S SKETCH A review of the testimony of the principal witnesses, including the 3 stewardesses, the 2 Northwest Airline employees (NWA) at Portland, Oregon, and the 5 passengers reflects a general disagreement concerning the accuracy of the artist's sketch. Numerous changes were sug- gested by these witnesses and some were implimented in making up the final artist's sketch. It is noted that a Bureau artist personally interviewed the three stewardesses at Minneapolis, Minnesota and thereafter prepared a re- vised sketch of the hijacker showing him with the dark glasses, which he wore on the airplane, and another sketch, but without the glasses. One key witness, 9 stewardess, was very adament in her insistence that the artist's conception was not a very good likeness of the hijacker. b6 b7C DB Cooper-32172 _ 2 _SE 164-81 It is recommended that a Bureau artist be flown to pertinent divisions, including Minneapolis, Seattle and Portland, and

Sources to be contacted would be such as construction firms, public utilities using dynamite, hardware stores and police departments and sheriff's offices concerning reports of theft of dynamite. HIJACKER PROFILE Hijacker's clothes may have been unfashionable, since he was wearing a black thin (out of style) snap-on tie and tie clasp. Hijacker's briefcase was described as "cheap" style. Hijacker's language usage indicates at least a modorate level of education (high school or higher). :selected: Hijacker drinkc bourbon and 7-Up, and smokes Raleigh cigarettes. :selected: Hijacker did not appear to be an experienced professional criminal (reportedly his behavior became childish following receipt of money.) The hijacker was familiar with the Seattle area because of seveal comments he made, such as "we are over Tacoma now" and "McChord Air Force Base is only 20 minutes from SeaTac Airport.

Duket functions on almost a tenth grade level, has high"average"intelligence and a very fast manipulative dexterity. Tests show he has aptitudes" for learning in" numerous types of work. However, he very flatly declares he is not interested in pursuing academic subjects or engaging in any trade or vocational training. Ho declares he has a trade as a grocery and food warehouse worker, but he plans to follow construction work on release. He resents 'the suggestion that he should improvo himself trade-wise while here and, in this frame of mind, he is not presently a ... candidate for such training. He is interested in the religious instruction program and has enrolled in such a course. There is only a bare possibility that relations between him and his wife will improve to the point of a reconciliation. He is an impetuous, flighty individual for whom prognosis is guarded.
