Dear
Thank you for your letter dated Decomber 3, 1974 in which you express some well thought out theories con- cerning the D.B. Cooper hijacking. Rest assured that all leads pertaining to these theories have been thoroughly investigated by the Seattle Division of the FBI.
The FBI relies heavily on cooperation by con- cerned citizens such as yourself to solve those crimes over which it has jurisdiction. Thank you again for your thoughtful letter.
Very truly yours,

found a parachute in an old abandoned shack located in the woods near their house. The parachute, described as white nylon with the words "U. S. Navy" on it, and has a serial number on it (unrecalled by what the number is), was found about one year ago but was only discovered by this past week when asked to have it placed in his room. The parachute does not have a container with it, but was found in a box with rubber gloves and a plastic case.
The missing parachute in this case - the one apparently used by the UNSUB - is described as 28 feet, nylon, white, flight circular (non-stearable ), which was packed in a model" ir NB 6 (Navy back pack 6) container and harness. The file does not say if the chute or container had a serial number on it.
It is suggested steps be taken to determine if the parachute in the possession of is identical to that used by the UNSUB.
It is suggested steps be taken to determine if the parachute in the possession of is identical to that used by the UNSUB. If it is not, the serial number should be checked in NCIC.
After discussing this matter with Supervisor it was decided that if the parachute is not that one used by the UNSUB, or if it is negative in NCIC, should be advised this office will contact Navy personnel (at Sand- point) and let them decide what action they want to take to recover the parachute, if they wish.

To whom it may concern:
Everytime I read something about D. B. Cooper the first Air Plane Hijacker, most especially when I see the composite picture of him, a name comes to my mind that fits that picture. b6 b7C
It was in the early nineteen-sixties when I first met this man. I did not know him very long. He said Hc was supposed to
He also was a pilot. I did not see him do any of these things. He had connections in Nevada. I do know the name of a bar he and a partner were supposed to own. I remember the first name of the partner.
I do know the name of a bar he and a partner were supposed to own. I remember the first name of the partner.
I know the town where he said he rented a plane to fly to Nevada.
The reason that I haven't said anything about this before is, I called the Bar but no one had heard of him. I made a person to person call. I have always felt the name he gave me was not his real one. I also feel kinda foolish, but, I cannot shake this feeling that I know this man everytime I see his face.
He seemed to have money. Quite a lot of it.
This was a smart and intelligent man but, I did have the feeling, something wasn't exactly kosher with him.
If you feel I may be of any help, I will gladly tell you what I know.

Dear Sir:
Recently I read a brief news release in our local paper that indicated had been found in the Seattle area which might have been "D.B. Cooper", the skyjacker-parachutist.
b6 b7C
Could you tell me if this is correct? I have been working on a magazine article about "Cooper" and would like any up- to-date information that can be released. I am not writing a "how-to" article, since it is my opinion that he was killed in his attempt ( that should discourage any would-be followers).
Your agent in Nashville gave me your address and suggested I write you for possible information on the status of the case. Whatever information can be released to me will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
