Leads concerning suspects will not be set forth in this report as they are being handled by separate con- munication.
There are currently 637 suspects, 470 of whom have been eliminated. New suspects are being developed and systematic elimination of these suspects continues.

In an effort to facilitate interoffice communi- cations, it is requested that all field offices originating NORJAK communications, not only refer to the appropriate communications but also include the suspect(s) name and alias(es) if known on the first page under the title NORJAK.
For the information of all field offices, the Bureau advised by airtel September 15, 1972, that this is the only aircraft hijacking in which the subject has not been identified and apprehended nor the ransom money recovered. All leads in this important case are to be set forth expeditiously. The investigation of this case is to be vigorously pursued in all facets in order to bring it to a successful completion.
It is noted that the investigative period overlaps previous NORJAK reports. This has been done since previous reports were not distributed to all field offices.
It is noted that Unsub in this matter is almost universally called "D. B. COOPER" by the press, the public, and even by Bureau personnel. Factually, there is no basis for this alias. As a possible explanation for the existence of the alias "D.

It is suggested that the fact that the name "D. B. COOPER" is not involved in this matter not be given publicity outside the Bureau in order to utilize this fact as an aid in the initial evaluation of new leads.
INVESTIGATIVE STEPS TO PROCESS NORJAK SUSPECTS
This list in no way represents all the means avail- able to process a suspect. Each individual case prompts a different method; one or more of the below listed methods have been used in the past.
1. Obtain current descriptive data (particularly useful is age, height and complexion),
2. Ascertain location on November 24, 1971, by
(a) checking employment records.
(b) checking cancelled checks or credit card transactions.
(c) interviewing acquaintances or relatives (note November 24th was the day before Thanksgiving, 1971).
3. Ascertain present location to determine if he is alive or if he appears to be in hiding.

4. Ascertain if he has knowledge of airplanes or parachuting (i.e. private pilot's license, skydiving experience, or military jump experience ).
5. Obtain current photograph, color if possible, to display to witnesses. (Note: All NORJAK eyewitnesses have been repeatedly contacted and have reviewed numerous photographs. Up to now they have been extremely cooperative, not withstanding the many contacts they have endured both at work and at home. Based on the above, these witnesses will not be contacted to view photographs unless there is no other way to eliminate a suspect).

PROFILE
The purpose of the following information is to conveniently list all the known facts concerning the hi- jacker's profile and to combine them with suppositions that can be reasonably inferred from those facts. The suppositions have been included to aid in processing a suspect. They should not be considered as concrete facts, nor should they be used as the sole determining factor in drawing investi- gative conclusions.
SUMMARY
Unsub was a well spoken, conservative gentleman; probably a Catholic with Mexican or Indian blood, He was not an alcoholic. He probably lived in the Portland or Seattle areas or had flown more than once over these areas. He apparently had no accomplices. He was not an experienced skydiver and most probably received his jump training in the military. His hijacking plan was not well thought out, and he was probably not an experienced criminal. He was apparently having financial troubles prior to November, . 1971, and he may have previously worked in an airline- related indus try.
He was apparently having financial troubles prior to November, . 1971, and he may have previously worked in an airline- related indus try. 
The reasons for the above suppositions are in- cluded below.
BACKGROUND
It is felt Unsub was not an experienced criminal because of his mannerism exhibited after he received the ransom money. Unsub reportedly became somewhat childish in his actions and comments while counting the money.
ALL : A)
Unsub was familiar with the Seattle area, as indicated by his comments concerning the plane's location as it flew over Tacoma, Washington. In addition, Unsub made a comment as to the distance McChord Air Force Base was in relation to Sea-Tac Airport. Unsub reportedly indicated McChord was approximately 20 minutes from Sea-Tac, which is essentially correct.
- F - COVER PAGE
DB Cooper-11381 SE 164-81
Unsub stated he was hijacking the aircraft because of a grudge. He may have had a relative, possibly a son, killed in Vietnam or he may have had recent finan- cial problems which would foster such a grudge.
He may have had a relative, possibly a son, killed in Vietnam or he may have had recent finan- cial problems which would foster such a grudge.
Unsub's complexion has been described as swarthy or dark. The grudge may be associated with his background which could possibly be Indian, Mexican or possibly Italian descent. Note unsub has been described by witness as definitely having some Mexican or Indian "blood" in him.
b6 b7C
It is noted the northwest area at the time of the hijacking was suffering from a depressed economic condition, and since Unsub was familiar with the Seattle area as in- dicated above, it is possible Unsub was out of work at the time of NORJAK. In addition, Unsub demonstrated considerable knowledge of aircraft and of flying, and it is felt he was employed in the aircraft industry, either civilian or military at one time in his life, therefore, it is logical to assume unsub may possibly have been out of work in an airlines-related industry.
His actions and reactions that occurred throughout the hijacking indicate unsub probably was not a desperate man, nor was he mentally ill such as a paranoid type.
His actions and reactions that occurred throughout the hijacking indicate unsub probably was not a desperate man, nor was he mentally ill such as a paranoid type. Unsub exhibited an unusually calm manner throughout the whole : p ... hijacking.
Unsub was probably a "loner" and carried out the hijacking by himself, with no partners. Throughout the hijacking, he exhibited a competency in reacting to various". situations that arose. It is-believed that Unsub was not an-experienced criminal,-but a-victim-of- circumstances.
Unsub's physical build and his handiness with the parachute shroud lines indicates coordination and some physical ability as will as inventiveness. (It is noted that during the hijacking unsub requested a knapsack to put the money in and he received a small white bag instead. Unsub took a small pocket knife from his person and fashioned a means to attach the small bag to his body using parachute lines from an unused parachute. Since it is

believed unsub was not well prepared for the hijacking and had not thoroughly thought the hijacking out, he most pro- bably always carries a small pocket knife with him.
The following information tends to indicate unsub was somewhat conservative in his thinking and dress:
1. Short style hair
2. Age mid 40's
3. Dark colored suit, dark colored raincoat, white shirt, narrow black tie.
4. Unsub did not swear and showed a great deal of respect for the stewardesses on the airline because they were women. (Unsub engaged in a small argument with one of the passengers, as well as experiencing extremely tense and nervous situations, and through it all he never used profane language - this might indicate he is possibly a religious man. Since he did drink, and since he is possibly religious, he probably is not a Baptist or Mormon.)
The following information tends to indicate Unsub possibily possessed athletic ability:
1. His physical build was described as average to well built, even though his age was described as in his mid-40's.
2. Unsub exhibited some physical dexterity using his hands and a small knife.

2. Unsub exhibited some physical dexterity using his hands and a small knife.
3. Unsub apparently parachuted from an aircraft at night; something that would require no small degree of physical ability.
It is felt unsub possibly maintains his physical well being through regular exercise.
- H - COVER PAGE
DB Cooper-11383 SE 164-81
The following information tends to indicate the Unsub was a gentleman:
1. He offered to tip the stewardesses on the NORJAK flight after he received his ransom money. He did not offer them ransom money as the tip, but used his own money.
2. . During the entire hijacking he did not use profane language.
3. Throughout the hijacking he maintained a calm demeanor and spoke low and intelligently.
The following information tends to indicate Unsub lived in the northwest area at some time in his life:
1. Unsub knew the distance from McChord to Sea-Tac and recognized Tacoma, Washington from the air.
2. Unsub was dressed in a suit and lightweight overcoat which is commonly worn by many north- west area residents.

3. . No accent or unusual speech mannerisms were detected by the Northwest Airlines stewardesses who had a chance to observe him.
SPORT PARACHUTIST
The hijacker is probably not a sports parachutist nor is he a member of a sport parachute club. The reasons for this are as follows:
1. The hijacker requested two back parachutes and two front parachutes. He gave no specific instructions as to the type of parachute that he desired. (i.e. a sports parachutist would probably have requested a steerable sport panciuTE.
- I - COVER PAGE
DB Cooper-11384 SE 164-81
2. Several sport parachutists have advised that a sport parachutist possesses an emotional attachment to his parachute and probably would not jump from an aircraft with anyone else's chute, nor would they jump with a chute they had not packed themselves.
The hijacker was furnished a parachute that opens quickly, has a high rate of descent, and one that was not steerable.
The hijacker was furnished a parachute that opens quickly, has a high rate of descent, and one that was not steerable.
3. The hijacker was furnished two front parachutes, commonly called chest packs which are to be used in an emergency when the back pack parachute or main parachute fails to open properly. The chest pack parachute the hijacker took with him was a dummy parachute. It was designed for lectures to demon- strate to new parachutists the proper method of opening a chest pack parachute. It is felt an experienced sports para- chutist would probably have noticed this defect.
4. Unsub's age has been described as mid 40's and it is noted that the average age in most sport parachute clubs is mid 20's. If Unsub was a member of a sport parachute club he would certainly be an unusual member, one that would be easily recognized by the other members, as well as one that was well known because of his unusual age. It is felt that due to the large amount of publicity aforded this case, someone in a sport parachute club would have recognized his fellow "sky diver" as being identical with Unsub if in fact
It is felt that due to the large amount of publicity aforded this case, someone in a sport parachute club would have recognized his fellow "sky diver" as being identical with Unsub if in fact Unsub was a member of any sports parachute club.
When the stewardess presented the parachutes to the hijacker she also presented an instruction sheet on how to utilize a parachute. At that time, Unsub stated he did not need any instructions concerning the use of a parachute.
Since Unsub did not specify a specific type of chute and because of the above reasoning concerning Unsub's age, it is felt Unsub was not an experienced jumper or even a sport jumper. In addition, Unsub probably had some jump training most probably obtained while in the military.

HABITS
Unsub drinks in moderation and is probably not an alcoholic. Unsub ordered one bourbon and seven at the be- ginning of the flight and although he was offered several free drinks later, he turned them down. This would indicate that Unsub possessed sufficient willpower to refuse alcohol in a tension-filled situation.
This would indicate that Unsub possessed sufficient willpower to refuse alcohol in a tension-filled situation. It is believed an alcoholic or a former alcoholic who had just had one drink and was · placed in a situation of similar stress would succumb to the pressure and imbibe in the free drinks offered him by the stewardesses.
Located in the ashtray utilized by Unsub were eight cigarette butts, seven of which have been identified by the FBI Laboratory as Raleigh filter cigarettes, and the eighth cigarette is possibly the same. These cigar- ettes are sold in a "soft pack". Unsub was in the aircraft eight hours in an extremely tense situation. During the eight hours, he had eight cigarettes. A two-pack-a-day smoker would have consumed 20 cigarettes in eight hours under normal circumstances. It is felt Unsub may possibly smoke less than one pack a day.
CLOTHES
Located in Seat 18 E (the seat Unsub occupied) was a black clip-on tie which contained a tie clip des- cribed as yellow gold in color, with a white pearl circular stone in the center.
CLOTHES
Located in Seat 18 E (the seat Unsub occupied) was a black clip-on tie which contained a tie clip des- cribed as yellow gold in color, with a white pearl circular stone in the center. The label in the tie bore the name "Towncraft" and bore the legend "Store 3, Penneys". The label in this tie showed it to be a "Snapper" patent type tie. Investigation at Las Vegas indicated this type tie was sold for about $1.50 and that this particular tie was about a year to a @year and a half old. It was a favorite item for individuals such as waiters, busboys and barten- ders.
b6
Stewardess has said that this tie, found b7c on the aircraft, was probably Unsubs and other witnesses have indicated he wore a similar type tie.
- K - COVER PAGE
DB Cooper-11386SE 164-81
Since Unsub wore a tie during the hijacking and for other reasons described above, it is felt he was possibly an executive. However, since the tie was narrow and a clip-on type not currently in style, Unsub was possibly not on a top-level executive.
Unsub carried with him a cheap briefcase that appeared to be new. It is thought the hijacker probably purchased this briefcase just prior to the hijacking to be used during
It is thought the hijacker probably purchased this briefcase just prior to the hijacking to be used during the hijacking only.
Unsub wore a white shirt with small collar points indicating he probably did not have the money to obtain a more fashionable wardrobe (i.e. more colorful shirts with larger collars currently in style). The white shirt could also indicate the hijacker's conservative taste in clothing.
EDUCATION
Unsub was accessed to be a high school graduate possibly with some college training, based primarily on vocabulary used during the hijack. Further, Unsub impressed stewardesses as possibly being experienced in dealing with people. They, therefore, concluded he was the executive type and seemed to naturally dictate the ransomed demands to the stewardesses in lieu of writing the notes out himself.

Character: CRIME APOARD AIRCRAFT - FIJACKING; EXTORTION
Synopsis: On November 24, 1971, a white male skyjacked a North- west Airlines Flight from Portland to Seattle. The hijacker demanded and received $200,000 and four para- chutes upon landing at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. After receiving the ransom money, the hijacker allowed the passengers to leave. The plane then took off for Reno and at 8:ll p.m. a pressure oscillation was noted by the plane's crew. That pressure oscillation was probably caused by the hijacker leaving the aircraft. Search of the aircraft at Reno revealed the hijacker was not in the plane when it landed. Extensive searches of the area into which the hijacker would have landed failed to locate the hijacker or any evidence of value. The initial black and white artist composite drawing of the hijacker was changed to a color sketch to more accurately reflect the hijacker's age and swarthy complexion. AED

SE 164-81
The Unsub, aka at 2:00 PM, Pacific Standard Time, November 24, 1971, purchased a one-way coach ticket at the Portland International Airport, Portland, Oregon, for travel from Portland to Seattle, Washington, on Northwest Orient Airlines Flight Number 305, which was a Boeing 727 aircraft. Unsub paid for this flight with a twenty dollar bill and had no luggage. He occupied seat number 18 E on the aircraft.
The Boeing 727 has three seats on each side of the aisle. Row 18 is the last one on both the right and left side of the aisle. The seats are identified from left to right as you face the front of the aircraft with A, B, C on the left side of the aisle and D (aisle seat), E (center seat) and F (window seat) on the right side.
Almost flush against the back of row 18, except for some eight inches near the aisle, is a bulkhead which forms the wall for the lavatories, located behind row 18; one on the right and one on the left. Beyond the lavatory doors is the door leading to the air stairs.
flush against the back of row 18, except for some eight inches near the aisle, is a bulkhead which forms the wall for the lavatories, located behind row 18; one on the right and one on the left. Beyond the lavatory doors is the door leading to the air stairs.
The door to the air stairs is always closed and locked, except when loading or unloading passengers. It is ,r' located straight away at the end of the aisle beyond row 18 and is perhaps some 3% feet from the last row and is in easy reach for someone sitting in row 18.
Built into the lower portion of the door to the air stairs is the stewardess seat which is pulled down when in use, so that a person sitting in that seat looks straight down the aisle toward the front of the aircraft. On take-off this seat was occupied by Stewardess
Prior to the time the aircraft taxied on the run- way, he purchased a bourbon and Seven Up from Stewardess As the aircraft taxied toward the runway for takeoff, Unsub turned and handed Stewardess m envelope containing a note written in black felt-tip pen on plain white unlined paper which said:
"Miss, I have a bomb here and I would like you to sit by me".

The hijacker then dictated the following:
"I want $200,000 by 5:00 p.m. in cash". (No specification as to denomination, age or sequence of bills). "Put it in a knapsack. I want two back parachutes and two front parachutes" (no other specification concerning para- chute types). "When we land I want a fuel truck ready to refuel" (probably his flying experience caused him to add this). "No funny stuff or I'll do the job" (the first attempted parachute skyjacking had been foiled about 12 days earlier by the hijacked aircraft's crew. )
The hijacker showed both Stewardesses the contents of his briefcase and stated it was an electrical device and requested the aircraft radio be used as little as possible.
The hijacker explained why he hijacked this plane by stating "it's not because I have a grudge against the airlines, it's because I have a grudge."

The hijacker then added that the flight suited his time, place and plans (probably the convenience of a Portland to Seattle flight suited the hijacker).
The hijacker very carefully demanded that each and every note either written by him or dictated to the stewardess by him be returned to him and he also had a used match cover which was used to convey notes returned to him.
Stewardess
showed Stewardess
the demand notes and then went to the cockpit where she displayed them to the captain of the aircraft. She thereafter remained in the cockpit where she prepared thirteen pages of notes concerning the hijacking.
The aircraft landed at Sea-Tac at 5:46 PM, PST, at which time $200,000. in twenty dollar bills, weighing 19 pounds, two back chutes and two chest chutes were given to him in a white canvas bag. The passengers then were allowed to deplane as were Stewardess and another stewardess. b6 b7C

Stewardess then acted as a communica- tions media between the Unsub and the captain of the air- craft until about five minutes after the aircraft departed the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport when she was instruct- ed to go to the cockpit by the Unsub.
The hijacker's instructions after receiving the money were vague. He probably wanted to jump from the aircraft as soon as possible after the takeoff. The hi- jacker put two of the parachutes, a back pack and a front pack, on prior to take off. He also wanted the air stairs lowered prior to takeoff, which subsequently proved to be impossible. Finally the hijacker jumped as soon as practi- cal after the stairs were lowered in flight. The hijacker was delayed from jumping by the trouble he experienced in lowering the air stairs and by the fact he was not provided a 'knapsack but rather a small white canvas bag which he had to affix to her person
The hijacker was delayed from jumping by the trouble he experienced in lowering the air stairs and by the fact he was not provided a 'knapsack but rather a small white canvas bag which he had to affix to her person utilizing parachute shroud lines from an unused parachute.
The plane departed Sea-Tac at 7:36 PM. Some four or five minutes after take-off, was sent to the cockpit by the hijacker. Some ten minutes after she entered the cockpit, one of the officers received a call on the interphone from the hijacker, advising he could not get the air stairs down. The pilot then leveled off the aircraft and reduced the air speed. Within a very short time, the officer's panel showed that the stairs had been lowered and approximately five minutes later, (8:05 PM), the officer contacted the hijacker who said everything was okay. That was the last communication with the hijacker.
At 8:11 PM, while the plane was at 10,000 feet, the crew experienced a pressure bump or oscillation and the Cabin Pressure Rate of Change Gauge also reacted violently and it was thought, at that time, that the hijacker might have left the aircraft.

When the aircraft landed at Reno, Nevada, a chest pack chute and a back type chute were found on the plane. The missing chest pack chute, sometimes referred to as an emergency chute, is a training pack "dummied up" to look like a good one. The missing back pack chute is non-steerable and anyone utilizing this type chute would have no chance of slowing down or picking his spot on which to land.

Also located in sear 18/E of the aircraft at Reno, was a black clip-on tie which contained a tie clasp described as yellow gold in color with a white pearl circular stone in the center. The label in the tie bore the name "Town- craft" and bore Store #3, Penneys. The label in this tie showed it to be a "Snapper" patent type tie. Investiga- tion in Las Vegas indicated that this type sold for about $1.50, that it was about a year to a year and a half old, and it was a favorite item for individuals such as waiters, busboys and
50, that it was about a year to a year and a half old, and it was a favorite item for individuals such as waiters, busboys and bartenders. Stewardess has said that this tie was probably the Unsub's and other witnesses have indicated that he wore a similar type tie.
Located in the ashtray utilized by the Unsub were eight cigarette butts, seven of which have been identified by the FBI Laboratory as Raleigh filter tip cigarettes and the eighth cigarette is probably the same. These cigarettes are sold in a "soft pack".
The two seats which she had observed to be oc- cupied by the unknown subject were processed for fingerprints. In addition the telephone, the area around the rear door, the rear door and four plastic drinking glasses found in the trash receptacle by the back door were also processed for fingerprints. In addition, a cloth towel affixed to the rear of one of the seats reportedly occupied by the unknown subject was removed and examined by Reno Agents. On that towel was noted what appeared to be a short human hair.

The FBI Laboratory by communication dated Decem- ber 9, 1971, advised that an examination of the towel sub- mitted by the Las Vegas Office, disclosed a brown head hair clipping and a brown limb hair, both of Caucasian origin. The report continued that the head hair clipping is suitable for significant comparison results, but that the limb hair possesses to few unique microscopic characteristics to be of value for that purpose.
The Laboratory also advised that the hairs obtain- ed from the towel have been mounted on a glass microscopic slide. They suggested that if microscopic comparisons between

It is apparent from the following excerpts, talen from logs maintained by ground personnel on November 24, 1971, that the hijacker exited the airplane at 8:11 p.m. local time.
When the hijacker jumped, the air stairs were forced closed 'causing an increase in air pressure similar to shutting a car door with the windows up. As this pressure increase occurred the co-pilot turned to look at the cabin rate of climb meter and in doing so his communications ear plug was pulled from his ear.
The co-pilot's comments at this time were being recorded on a tape recorder which had previously been started on a time standard signal. Through careful play back and sequencing, the time of the pressure oscillation caused by the air stairs closing after Unsub departed was determined to be 8:11 p.

Ransom money in the amount of $200,000 was made up entirely of used, random 20 dollar bills. It was obtain- ed from the Seattle First National Bank, Main Office, and was part of a ransom package of $250,000. which had been maintained by the bank for such emergencies. The package measured approximately one foot by one foot by eight or nine inches and weighed 19 pounds.
A check of the Federal Aviation Administration flight section at Portland International Airport reflected that on November 24, 1971 between 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM, there was a ceiling of 5,000 feet, 3,500 feet broken clouds, and at 1,500 feet scattered and broken clouds at times with a wind of 12-14 knots. The temperature at the end of the air stairs at the time of the jump was approximately 0º c.

Northwest Airlines (NRA) Flight 2305, departed Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sca-Tac) , undor hi- jack: 11/24/71, at 7:36 PM. At the orders of the hijacker, the landing gear and Alaps were down. After the plane was airborne, the hijacker and Stewardess the opening of the rear door and the lowering of the air strirs .. In less than five minutes after take-off, the hijacker instructed Stewardess to go forward into the First Class Section and close the curtain behind her and not to return to the rear compartment again.
At 7:42 PM, the crew advised that the stair light was on, indicating that the hijacker was doing something with the air stairs.
At 7:42 PM, the crew advised that the stair light was on, indicating that the hijacker was doing something with the air stairs. The plane, at that time, was flying at 7,000 Rect.
The log contained an entry at 8:05 PM, indicating the crew had on two occasions, attempted to make contact with the hijacker but he did not reply. However, he then spoke over the PA system and said "everything is okay."
An analysis on 11/24 and 25/71, of the flight path of the airer: Et, after it loft Seattle, and the logs provided by NGA, suggested thes the hijacker was still in the airplane as of 8:05 PM. At that time the plane, according to radar tracking by the U. S. Air Force, was located at a point north of the Pidgeon Springs, Washington area and east of Ostrander, Washington. This would b.ve been the northern most point when he was kucon te be on the aircraft.

On 1/6/72, the NWA 727 which was actually involved in the hijacking, was flown to Seattle, by for the purpose of conducting a test to see if the "pressure bump" experienced during the hijacking, was caused by some- thing leaving the aircraft.
The conclusion from that test was that the cabin pressure change occurred when the stairs were forced upward by the air pressure after the weight had been removed. according to who was a member of the hijacked crew, and also a member of the crew when the test was performed, the occurrence was identical with the incident on the night of the hijack. Also the instrument in the cabin which reacted so violently on the night of the hijacking, also reacted the same way when the test was performed.

16. The attached plot indicates the envelope of possible landing points of the high jacker (HJ). It is based on the following:
- Aircraft position from USAF rader data from McChord AFB furnished by
--- Probable jump time (0411 GMT) from an analysis of the recorded communication from the flight relative to the cabin pressure fluctuation. Flight tests conducted on January 6 confirmed that the pre. ure fluctuation almost certainly occurred at the time the HJ left the airplane.
- Wind information from 10,000' MSL to the ground as determined by NWA
- Human body trajectories from data furnished by The Boeing Company (free-fall) and NWA (parachute open condition) who is an expert para- chutist.
- Time correlation from the above USAF radar information and from the NWA communications network tope recording.
- Time correlation from the above USAF radar information and from the NWA communications network tope recording.
- Airplane airspeed and altitude from the airplane's flight recorder.
The plot is explained as follows:
1. The heavy dashed line C-D-E-S defines the airplane's probable ground track.
2. Line G-I-J-K defines the westernmost, and Ling L-M-N-O the easternmost probable airplane ground tracks based on the stated position tolerance of 1.5 nautical mile of the USAF radar plot.
3. Lines A-B, H-P, and O-R ore the average wind vectors between 10,000' MSL and the ground, and are the linos parallel to which the HJ would drift after the parachute had opened.
4. Line H-S-T defines the northernmost (earliest) points over which the HJ probably . left the airplane. Line K-F-O defines the southernmost (latest) points over which the HJ probably left the airplane. The north-south span of possible jump positions is a product of the radar position tolerance of L.5 mile, and the possible communication time determination tolerance of ±1 minute.
The north-south span of possible jump positions is a product of the radar position tolerance of L.5 mile, and the possible communication time determination tolerance of ±1 minute.
5. The area within the boundary defined by Points H-P-O-R-O-K-J-I-H marks the extreme limits of probable landing points based on the above tolerances. That is, assumir.] the highest probable degree of inaccuracy in aircraft position, jump time, wind vector, etc., all probable HJ landing points would lie within the area defined by this line.
6. If it is assumed aircraft position, jump time, wind vector, and other inputs used are all accurate (without allowance for the above stated tolerances):
a. The HJ's landing point would be at Point A if his 'chute did not open, or if he opened it so soon that the high speed caused 'chute damage that resulted in the equivalent of a free-fall to the ground. (The horizontal body trajectory due to

b. If the 'chute was opened without damage immediately after the ILI left the airplane, he would drift with the wind along Line A-B and would land at Polat D. The more expert he was, the longer he would probably free-fall (to limit his drift with the wirk!). The lowest probable altitude to which he would frco-fall is 2600' MSL. If he free- fell to 2500' MCL, his lending would be at Point U.
Based on the above, the most favorable search creas, listed in their order of priority, would be as follows:
- At Point A.
- Along Line A-3, favoring the segment between U and B.
- South of Line A-B.
- North of Line A-B.
In addition to the above, the following are pertinent:
- The landing point is more likely to be south of Line A-B, and it Is more likely to be in the northwest portion of area A-B-R-O-K-J-A than in the southeast portion thereof.
- It is substantially loss likely that the landing point is north of Line .
Line A-B, and it Is more likely to be in the northwest portion of area A-B-R-O-K-J-A than in the southeast portion thereof.
- It is substantially loss likely that the landing point is north of Line .A-D. If it is, the most probelle: point is south of the Lewis River, and in the south west portion of the area defined by Points A-B-I-J-A.
- It seems highly unlikely-though possible -- that the landing point is north of the Lowis River, but if it is, it is more likely to be in the southwest portion of the area defined by Points Q-M-V-1-H-P-Q.
If there are any questions relative to the above, they should be referred to the under- . signed.

While this was being conducted, Agents in ground units wore conducting door to door canvass in the vicinity of the southerly end of Cowlitz County. Total area covered by air was 800 square miles with negative results.
On December 2, 1971, ten Agents walked in a defined search pattern the area in the immediate vicinity of the circle of search as set forth by Northwest Airlines. The terrain was found to be composed of fields which are being farmed and a number of impenetrable thickets which have fallen logs, hidden beaver ponds, and creeks and generally hazardous and most difficult terrain to search on foot. It was noted that in getting into the thicket and under- brush growth, it was so heavy that. even if an item was five yards from the observer, it could easily be missed due to overgrowth problems. The area covered in this physical terrain search was 1 1/2 miles long and 2/3 of a mile wide and took approximately five hours.

FIRST TERRAIN SEARCH
The purpose of the first terrain search was to search for possible evidence left behind by Unsub and to find the remains of Unsub assuming he made an unsuccessful jump. The first terrain search commenced at 2:00 PM on March 21, 1972 with 218 Army troops including officers, 20 Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and 9 helicopters. The area to be searched covered approxi- mately 25 square miles.
Due to snowfall in search area on March 25, 1972, the search was temporarily held up. Army troops remained on location and the search resumed at 12:00 Noon on March 26, 1972. The search was temporarily discontinued at 12:00 Noon March 30, 1972 to allow search personnel to rest and enjoy the Easter Holiday. The Army search equip- ment was retained at search headquarters at Merwin Park.
The search recommenced 7:15 AM, April 8, 1972, with 265 Army personnel and 20 Agents.
The Army search equip- ment was retained at search headquarters at Merwin Park.
The search recommenced 7:15 AM, April 8, 1972, with 265 Army personnel and 20 Agents. Snow, sleet and freezing rain hampered search on April 12, 1972. Remaining areas to be searched were reached only by helicopter in- sertion of search personnel and landing zones in most cases were under 6 to 12 inches of snow.
The search of the entire area was completed at 1:00 PM, April 17, 1972 with nothing found.
HUNTERS SEARCH
Prior to the 1972 hunting season, the following information was made available to Washington State Game Wardens who supervise the area into which the hijacker parachuted:
"On November 24, 1971, a man parachuted into the below-described area with $200,000 in $20 bills. If, while camping or hunting, you should discover any evidence con- cerning this skyjacking please contact the nearest FBI office.

DB Cooper-11414SE 164-81
AREA INVOLVED
"Bound on the west by US 5, bound on the south by the Columbia River, bound on the north by the Kalama River, and bound on the east by the Skamania-Clark County line.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR:
"1) The remains of a man, possibly dead for one year.
2) The remnants of a parachute, harness or parachute shroud lines.
3) 10,000 $20 bills wrapped in a parachute canopy, all serial numbers are known and can be identified.
4) Deteriorated raincoat or overcoat.
5) Small briefcase or attache case.
REWARD:
"$25,000.00 total or 15% of any lesser portion of the ransom money that is returned has been offered by Northwest Orient Airlines.
"If any information concerning this matter is discovered, it should be reported to the FBI Office at Seattle, Washington, area code 206, telephone MA. 2-0460 collect, or to the nearest FBI Office, which can be found by checking in front of your telephone directory."
The above information in the form of letters was distributed to hunters by game wardens.
The remains of JAMES ANNIS were found by hunters near Cougar, Washington on November 5, 1972.

The above information in the form of letters was distributed to hunters by game wardens.
The remains of JAMES ANNIS were found by hunters near Cougar, Washington on November 5, 1972. ANNIS, 16 years old in 1971, was reported missing on November 13, 1971 while hunting. He was positively identified by dental examination.
Several leads were received as the result of the publicity afforded this case by the news media and the Washington State Department of Game Wardens. These leads
DB Cooper-11415
27. SE 164-81
all received expeditious and thorough attention but all results were negative.
SECOND TERRAIN SEARCH
In attempt to determine the accuracy of the first search area, the following was learned:
The first search area was calculated using a system of plotting known as "GEOREF" (i.e. Geographical Reference) which has a plotting error of plus or minus one mile. A new plotting system using a computer generated latitude and longitude has a plotting error of plus or minus 1/2 mile. Using the new system, Northwest Orient Airlines plotted a new course for the NORJAK airplane and a new search area based on the new course.
Using the new system, Northwest Orient Airlines plotted a new course for the NORJAK airplane and a new search area based on the new course. The new seanch area based on the new course. The new search area is partially outside the first area. (See maps. )
It is felt that if Unsub's parachute opened, he is no longer in the southwest Washington area, but if his parachute did not open he would be in a corridor along the flight path. The time of jump is known, and an area approximately one mile by seven miles represents the area Unsub would have landed in if his parachute did not open.
Because some of the above corridor fell in the old or first terrain search area, only an area 2 miles by 1/2 mile was searched during the second terrain search.
The second terrain search commenced March 12, 1973, and involved 10 Special Agents of the Seattle Office. It was temporarily interrupted on March 16 and resumed again March 26, 1973.
The second terrain search was completed March 29, 1973 with nothing found.

When it was explained to the hijacker that the plane could not take off with the air stairs down, he re- portedly said in a low voice, "Yes they can, but the cockpit can put it down after they get airborne. "
On July 26, 1972, advised that if the hi- jacker was a member of, or had consulted with a member of the Boeing Test Team, he would have known that the 727 could not have taken off with the air stairs down, nor would it have be been

FIRST SKYJACKING UTILIZING PARACHUTES
In an effort to determine the origin of the D.B. COOPER hijacking (i.e. the original idea behind the skyjack plan), a review was conducted of the magazine and newspaper articles written just prior to NORJAK.
The below quoted newspaper article described the first known skyjacking in which a parachute was used by the skyjacker.
The Seattle Times, November 13, 1971:
"Calgary, Alberta - (UPI) - A masked hyjacker carrying more than 40 pounds of dynamite was knocked un- conscious today by an Air Canada crewman wielding a fire ax. The crewman's action 3,000 feet in the air ended a six- hour hijacking which skipped back and forth over the United States - Canadian border.
"The hijacker, reported in fair condition today with a possible skull fracture, was putting on a
crewman's action 3,000 feet in the air ended a six- hour hijacking which skipped back and forth over the United States - Canadian border.
"The hijacker, reported in fair condition today with a possible skull fracture, was putting on a parachute to bail out of the DC8 over Calgary when he was struck by the ax.
"The hijacker, carrying a shotgun in addition to the dynamite, took control last night of the Calgary to Montreal flight carrying 123 persons. Claiming to be a member of the Irish Republican Army, the man demanded $1.5 million and a free passage to Ireland. (A touring I. R.A. spokesman denied that the hijacker belonged to the I. R.A. )
"After landing in Great Falls, Montana, the man accepted $50,000 ransom. The plane took off, landed again at Great Falls, and the man let the passengers to unharmed. But, he ordered the plane with its five-member crew to take off again. Indecision on the part of the hijacker led the plane back and forth across the border before he ap- parently decided to jump.
"An Air Canada official said that as the hijacker was preparing to jump,

jumped him and came up behind him and 'let him have it with a fire ax.

jumped him and came up behind him and 'let him have it with a fire ax.
"Flight 812 made its first landing at Great Falls after the hijacker had taken over 40 miles west of Winnipeg, Manitoba. There it was refueled and the $50,000 was handed to the hijacker by a policewoman. The money was raised by bankers as the plane circled the city for two hours.
"The plane then took off for a scheduled stop in Regina, Saskatchewan, to let the 114 passengers aboard disembark. The plane did not land in Regina, however, but turned back and set down in Great Falls again where the passengers and three of the nine crew members were set free.
"On its second take-off from Great Falls, Air Canada officials said the hijacker wanted to be taken to New York City before proceeding to Ireland. The man, des- cribed as 5-feet-7, dark-haired and in his 30's then decided he wanted to go to Phoenix, Arizona, but finally settled for Calgary.
"At Great Falls Airport, Gov. FORREST ANDERSON and hundreds of onlookers stood by.

"At Great Falls Airport, Gov. FORREST ANDERSON and hundreds of onlookers stood by. ANDERSON said he came to persuade the hijacker to surrender or at least release the passengers. He never saw the hijacker, however, "

"Calgary, Alta. - (UPI) - A masked man armed with a sawed-off shotgun and dynamite who could not make up his mind where he anted to go was knocked out by a crew member early today to end a bizarre hijacking flight on an Air Canada DC 8.
"The hijacker was captured when a crew member struck him with a fire ax as the man was bending over to put on a parachute he was carrying, Air Canada said. A local hospital reported the hijacker suffered lacerations on his head.
"The plane - originally bound from Vancouver, B. C. to Montreal - was commandeered with 127 persons aboard.

"It had flown back and forth between Canada and the United States at the orders of the hijacker who at first said he wanted to go to Ireland. He claimed to belong to the Irish Republican Army (IRA).
"The passengers were released on the second of two stops the hijacked plane made at Great Falls, Mont.
"Just before landing here of the four- engine jet radioed that the hijacker was unconscious, Air Canada officials said. however, called for bomb disposal experts to stand by.
"Right after landing in Calgary the man was whisked away by ambulance.
"Earlier the man had extracted $50,000 ransom for the release of the passengers and most of the crew dur- ing the second time it landed at Great Falls.
"tThe guy was wearing a mask and holding what appeared to be dynamite and a sawed-off shotgun,' an Air Canada spokesman said in Montreal.
"The hyjacker first demanded $1.5 million ransom and a flight to Ireland. After hijacking the plane fol- lowing a stop here, he ordered it to Great Falls where a policewoman carried two suitcases with $50,000 to the cock- pit and they were raised by a rope
"The hijacker then ordered the
After hijacking the plane fol- lowing a stop here, he ordered it to Great Falls where a policewoman carried two suitcases with $50,000 to the cock- pit and they were raised by a rope
"The hijacker then ordered the plane to fly to Regina, Sask., where he said the passengers would be released, but after a half hour, the plane returned to Great Falls and the passengers were released there.
"While the plane was on the ground in Great Falls, an unidentified FBI agent tried unsuccessfully to talk the hijacker into giving up. The plane took on 130,000 gallons of fuel at Great Falls for the possible flight to Ireland.
"The plane took off for a second time with the filing a flight plan for Phoenix, Ariz. But later the DC8 made a midcourse change and the plane headed for Calgary.

"Police said the hijacker warned the passengers not to talk about what happened on the four-engine aircraft or he would kill the crew. Officers said he had a transistor radio and was listening to local newscasts while the plane was on the ground.
"One passenger, a young woman, appeared distraught and was placed in a wheelchair after she was helped out of the plane.
"Stewardess told officials none of the passengers was aware of the hijack until the plane made its first landing here.
"Policewoman brought the money to the hijacker. She said the money was provided by the First Westside National Bank of Great Falls. She refused to dis- close who ordered the payment of the ransom.

SR 71 FLIGHT
U.S. AIR FORCE SR-71 AIRCRAFT
By communication December 3, 1971, the Sacramento Di- vision advised that Reale Air Force Base, California, had offered, free of charge to the Bureau, use of an SR-71 air- craft to photograph terrain over which the hijacked airplane had flown on its trip to Reno.
This aircraft was described as an extremely sophis- ticated aerial reconnaissance plane which would photograph a strip 20 miles wide with photographic resolution of detecting objects on the ground 2 feet square. The film strip would then be reviewed by trained and qualified U.S. Air Force personnel.
By communication February 17, 1972 the Sacramento Di-
vision advised that photographic over-flights using SR-71 aircraft were conducted on five separate occasions with no photographs obtained due to limited visibility from very high altitude. SR-71 Flights from Beale Air Force Base advised each such flight requires minimum of one week advance clearance with FAA due to sonic boom problem, specialized
SR-71 Flights from Beale Air Force Base advised each such flight requires minimum of one week advance clearance with FAA due to sonic boom problem, specialized computer programming of aircraft, filing of flight plan and compliance with FAA requirements. Accordingly, weather on flight date cannot be accurately predicted. He stated no future flights over specific area where hijacker possibly exited could be schueduled since SR-71 aircraft committed for military missions.

By communication, November 1, 1972, Seattle Division advised the Bureau and Norfolk that Unsub had in his possession, prior to the time he jumped, the following paraphernalia:
A. Parachute Back Pack
B. . Parachute Chest Pack
C. Briefcase or attache case
D. Dark overcoat
E. A 4x12x14 paper bag
F. A pair of dark slip-on shoes
G. Wrap-around sunglasses with dark rims

Since none of the above was found when the plane was searched at Reno, Unsub must have taken them with him, or discarded some of them prior to jumping ..

Since none of the above was found when the plane was searched at Reno, Unsub must have taken them with him, or discarded some of them prior to jumping ..
The above-described attache case supposedly contained a bomb. It is believed Unsub threw, this attache case from the plane prior to his jumping, because of the numerous other items he had to carry. If he did throw it prior to jumping, it would fall almost directly in the path of the aircraft. The 727 air stairs were lowered sometime after 7:42 p.m. and Unsub jumped prior to 8:15 p.m. on November 24, 1971. The plane covered a distance of approximately 87 miles during this time.
The items could possibly be lodged in thickly wooded, mountainous terrain. The search area would cover a strip of land approximately 87 miles long by one-half mile wide. It has been suggested that infrared photography might possibly indicate non-living material, such as an attache case, in a darker shade than living material, thereby enabling the case to be found using infrared high resolution photography.
Since Unsub possibly discarded the attache case prior to jumping, he could not have buried or hidden it.
Since Unsub possibly discarded the attache case prior to jumping, he could not have buried or hidden it. The case would have dropped directly in the flight path of the plane and could possibly be visible from the air. The length of time Unsub would have to throw the case or any other time is limited to 33 minutes, and therefore the area covered is relatively small when compared to the entire flight path.
By communication November 9, 1972, the Norfolk Division advised that interviews were conducted with the following individuals assigned to the Langley Air Force Base, Virginia:

It was the consensus of opinion among the three individuals above, each of whom has had consideral le experience

with infrared imagery, that efforts to locate the attache case by this means would probably prove futile. The terrain, as described, would neutralize any effort, particularly if tall trees and mountains are part of its makeup. Further explained was the necessity for the presence of heat which would need to be generated by the object (attache case) in contrast to the
Further explained was the necessity for the presence of heat which would need to be generated by the object (attache case) in contrast to the surrounding terrain for successful infrared high resolution photography. The size of the attache case provides a poor target for any type of aerial photography, including visual photography.
All three individuals interviewed continued to express their negative feelings as to the success of either of the aerial photography procedures in this particular instance.
The Alexandria Division was requested to determine the feasibility of routing a visual aerial photography training mission over the area of interest. Alexandria advised by aintel dated February 8. 1973, that
was contacted and he advised that he had made inquiry into this matter and stated that in the event Seattle wished to have military assistance in this matter then Seattle should request the Director to submit a letter of request to the Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Pentagon, Washington, D.
event Seattle wished to have military assistance in this matter then Seattle should request the Director to submit a letter of request to the Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Pentagon, Washington, D.C. 20301. In this letter the full particulars of the ratter should be set forth as well as whether or not the Bureau or Department of Justice is willing to observe the additional cost if any to the Air Force. advised that he could not state positively that the request would be granted, however, advised that it was his opinion that if this were to be a reimbursable project, that it would probably receive more favorable action. However, in any event, upon receipt of the letter a conference would be held within the appropriate military organization to ascertain the feasibility of such missions and the Bureau would be properly notified.
In view of the above information no further request was made to have a visual aerial photography training mission at this time. Consideration may be given to this type of survey if new methods or monies become available.

Upon discussing the matter, he chose to concentrate on his civilian positions of employment over his
Upon discussing the matter, he chose to concentrate on his civilian positions of employment over his military obligations. This officer's conduct during off duty hours at ANACDUTRA greatly impaired his ability to carry out his assigned responsibilities.

PART III - MANNER OF PERFORMANCE (Road paragraph 21c, AR 623-105)
15. RATER During the short period of time that I have observed Captain Countryman, he has exhibited very few qualities that are desired of an officer. He is a personable in- dividual who makes friends easily and willingly participates in official and semioff- icial social functions. He has shown on many occasions that he accepts statements from subordinates as complete fact and truth, without sufficient verification.
He has shown on many occasions that he accepts statements from subordinates as complete fact and truth, without sufficient verification. This resulted in deficiencies on the Annual General Inspection, which were outlined as deficiencies previous to the AGI. Captain Countryman, upon assuming command of the 142d Military Police Company, was properly counseled by the reviewing officer and the rating officer. During the period of time covered by this report, it has been neces- sary for further counseling by the rating, indorsing and reviewing officer, which has produced no noticeable results. He has not been able to realize and accept the respon- sibilities which are required for his position and grade. Unless there is a subsequent decided improvement in Captain Countryman bpigrautHobioffend an extension of his present tour of active duty.

TO. INDORSER 
I AM UNABLE TO EVALUATE THIS OFFICER FOR THE FOLLOWING REASON:
I concur with the remarks and rating given by the rating officer. Captain Countryman has failed to produce and has not established that he can produce. He is outwardly aware of what must be done, acknowledges same but fails to follow through. His behavior pattern while off duty in terms of the company with which he had associated until counseled, left much to be desired and was not conductive to establishing himself as an officer leader. Officer's performance and development should be closely monitor- ed in terms of retention beyond this tour.

1& INDORSER 1 AM UNABLE TO EVALUATE THIS OFFICER FOR THE FOLLOWING REASON:
CPT Countryman has shown a definite improvement in performance of duty during the past few months. He has begun to take the initiative whenever discrepancies are dis- covered in his unit and install procedures which will prevent their recurrence. His unit has improved significantly in overall proficiency to the point that it is consider ed a satisfactory unit as compared to the unsatisfactory rating for the first few months he was commanding. CPT Countryman is a reserve officer who has never been on activa duty and he does not possess the experience necessary to function efficiency as a Captain in the U.S. Army. However, CPT Countryman has made great strides in adjust. in and adapting to Army life in the past few months, and he has shown an awarendad up to the responsibilities and the functions of an Army officer. I feel that if ho cents to improve and apply himself, as he has in the past few months, he should be on active duty after completion of his present commitment.
