I would like to take this opportunity to once again state that Bruno Hauptmann was a patsy!
Pretty sure D.B. Cooper is on freerepublic.
Does anyone really want to know who it was?
This hijacking is an American legend, for a whole bunch of reasons.
Wow, I didn’t realize there was so much more to the story...and so much more yet to come.
I hope Cooper is never found.
Some legends, or myths, should live forever.
Was anyone killed, raped or otherwise physically hurt?
No.
Time, age or PC BS have taken everything else, Santa Claus, the Easter bunny, Huckleberry Fin and Tom Sawyer.
Dang it!
Leave us DB Cooper!
I read that DB Cooper is living in Nepal with his wife!!
In other news, it was reported that the third alien managed to live through the Roswell crash and escaped the wreckage. It has managed to live on the land in the Sangre De Christo mountains. Although the relentless New Mexico sun is thought to be harmful, The large eyes have adapted.
Try posting something to the San Jose news site that is opposed to the left, Muslims, and queers and watch how fast you get banned. What fraction of this article is real?
This story is total BS.
The story itself gives it away as BS.
So his associates on the ground were waiting for him when he jumped?
Tell me how they knew where he would land?
How did he know where he was?
Even a highly skilled civilian pilot who knows exactly where he is at any given moment would not have the information on winds aloft accurately enough to land on a targeted spot.
True that an experienced pilot knows exactly what the winds are at his altitude, but wind varies significantly both in speed and direction between jet flight levels and the ground.
For that information one needs very careful briefing from a meteorologist.
For Cooper to land at the spot where his cohorts waited, the pilots and air traffic control would have to be a part of the scheme so the flight path and the altitude would be exact and the jump would occur at the exact instant required.
I am surprised that someone who did or does night jumps in the military has not commented on this story.
So when the telling of this tall tale says his guys were waiting for him on the ground with their pickup,,,,,,,
Nonsense.
He’s 73 and would have only been 27 in 1971.
Sketch is of a man older than 27.
Then he screws up the story by saying he first heard of DB when he was 14.
Nothing adds up.
I am DB Cooper.
On another mystery...I saw a 2-hour show a while back on the History Channel about the guys who escaped from Alcatraz. It convinced me that the 2 brothers at least, probably survived, and I’m pretty hard to convince about these things. Check it out if you can find it.

Nope!
Not Robert Rackstraw!
But “Cooper” is from California.

Back in the 80’s, I used to write: “I am alive...D B Cooper” in truckstop bathroom stalls in Tx,La,Ok and Ark...just to keep the fbi interested if anyone reported.
