This is a great caper.

I remember watching a TV docu-drama about D.B. Cooper when I was a kid. I think Treat Williams played D.B. Cooper in the movie. After landing in the wilderness D.B. Cooper (Treat Williams) used several hundred dollar bills to light a cigar in celebration of his escape.

Anyways...this case has always intrigued me. It would be interesting if the feds could solve it once and for all.

A clip-on tie from J.C. Penney.

Felons aren’t known for their fashion, I guess.

Everyone knows that DB Cooper was Karl Rove in his younger days.

Humm

How many of you remember the apology given by Rod Serling? Seems "D.B." may have watched an episode of the Twilight Zone.......

Sounds like a job for FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper. He has lots of experence with cases in the Pacific Northwest woods.

Here lies the crook D.B. Cooper
a wannabee paratrooper.
He jumped into the night,
fell out of sight,
landed in a balsam fir.

DB Cooper update supposedly on Coast (aka Art Bell's old show) during first half-hour of the show.

That is, this half hour.

How can they state with certainty that the money has never surfaced? Is every 7-11 clerk in the nation checking every $20 bill received against a list of numbers? When a store's receipts are turned into a bank, is every serial number checked for 37 years just to catch this guy?

I posted this in the other FReeper thread on this subject...

There was an article from a few years ago, in which a woman was claiming that her recently deceased husband was D.B. Cooper, but that she didn’t know about it while he was alive. She only figured it out later and she provided evidence and proof for the fact that he was. She was on TV and there were several articles written.

I was in Portland, OR at the time the plane left Portland, on the way to Seattle, WA. I was at work and it was a stormy night. It was raining “cats and dogs” and was cool. It was around Thanksgiving and we listened to the developments on the radio at work. I can still remember that particular event and what we were doing at work, at the time, because the whole thing was so memorable.

I think the FBI should pay attention to that lady and what evidence that she has. They may solve it that way. I wish I could easily find that article once again. I may try looking for it and posting it here when I find it...

Regards,
Star Traveler

Unlike Vince Foster or Ron Brown, or perhaps TWA 800, you can’t blame the D. B. Cooper thing on the Clintons!
