made available the file, number 6737 concerning HAROLD RAY
HARDESTY, FBI Number 109 477. Also made available was a
photograph of HARDESTY taken on July 2, 1954, which is the
most recent photograph available in this file.

According to the file, HARDESTY committed 19 armed
robberies during the year of 1941; was the ring leader of
three robbers; used a pistol in the execution of these 4
robberies and offered as an explanation after being caught
that he was obtaining money for which to buy an airplane.

He was sentenced out of King County for a 9-year minimum
sentence on January 30, 1942. On July 4, 1944, HARDESTY
escaped from the Walla Walla Penitentiary by fire bombing a
guard tower and using grappling hooks and lines to scale the
walls. Subsequently he was apprehended by Federal authorities
in the Detroit, Michigan area and was convicted for interstate
transportation of stolen property. For this he was committed
to the U.S. Penitentiary at Leavenworth. At the expiration

of this term he was returned to the Walla Walla Penitentiary

on March 3, 1950. He was then tried and found guilty of escape
and sentenced to 10 years. He was paroled on September 28,
1954 to the custody of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. D. HARDESTY,

Gentlemen: ,
I heard a story last November, while playing cards with
a group of friends in South Jersey which I have never been able to
get out of my mind because it made me think of the skyjacker you
have never caught, Mr. Cooper.

Tt was about a man named who was once under suspicion b6
as a skyjacker. He, apparentiy, is now Living on the West Coast. BIC

'gaused so much trouble that she had to] | and

interested me, however, was the story and the skyjacking

matter. The way they talked about him, it seemed to me that he
_ fitted the description of the Cooper skyjacker.

Did you think to check out[ Are you still investigating ©
the Cooper matter? If my hunch is correct, I will present a copy of 7S

Gan You Identify This
Fiijacker?

The Crime

A lone white male using the name
Dan Cooper boarded Northwest
Orient Airlines Flight No. 305 at
Portland, Oreg., on November 24,
1971. At approximately 3:22 p.m.,
while the flight was en route to Seat-
tle, Wash., he indicated to a stew-
ardess that his briefcase contained a
bomb which would blow up the plane
unless his demands were met.

The hijacker demanded $200,000
and four parachutes in exchange for
the safety of the 36 passengers
aboard the plane. When the aircraft
landed at Seattle, Northwest Orient
Airlines complied with his instruc-
tions. After he received the parachutes
and money, the hijacker allowed all
passengers and two of the airline
stewardesses to deplane,

He then ordered the remaining crew
members into the first-class section of
the airéraft and informed them he
desired to fly to Mexico City. The hi-
jacker instructed that the plane pro-
ceed in a southerly direction and fly at
a low altitude and slow speed which en-
abled the rear door of ihe plane to be
opened during the flight.

32

The hijacker apparently bailed out
somewhere between Seattle and Reno,
Nev., where, when the plane landed, it
was determined that "Cooper," tvo
parachutes, and the ransom money

had disappeared.

The Criminal

Artist conception drawings of the
aireraft hijacker were prepared by the

INVESTIGATIVE STEPS TO PROCESS NORJAK SUSPECTS

This list in no wey 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.

' (oe) 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, AsScertain 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).

6. Compare suspect's fingerprints and palm prints
with NORJAK partials on file ia the Identifica-
tion Bureau. (TH

Division

7. Ascertain if he is 'in any way familiar with
the Pacific Northwest area and in particular if
he ever flew over this area.

8. Check current financial situation and contrast
it to his situation prior to NORJAK.

8, Determine if he smokes cigarettes or if he
ever smoked cigarettes. (Note: Unsub smoked
Raleigh cigarettes).

10. Determine if he was refistered at a motel or
hotel near the Portland Airport just prior to
NORJAK.

ll. Determine if he made any trial runs prior to
NORJAK on airlines flying between Portland and
Seattie.

12. Determine if has a safe deposit box and con-
sider feasibility of obtaining a court order
to determine its contents.

13. Compare his hair to hair fiber found on NORJAK
airplane.

as to how it happened would be "duck soup" for an experienced
jumper. Anyone who has made over 100 parachute jumps would
be considered an experienced jumper that vouldlave no trouble
with this type of jump. Further, from hig knowledge of pilot-
ins, various planes for parachute jumpers, he feels there is
no vay that the pilot could feel physically any change in the
plane when the jumper vent out. A plane of that cize and under
those conditions would not physically or in any way that could

Jatected by a human beinr, change its status so the person

Leads are not being set out in this report but
rather are being set out by separate communications.

The FBI Laboratory advised by communication dated
4/19/74 as follows:

It should be noted that this crime was committed
on 11/24/71. Due to the amount of time that has passed since
that date, the value of any further hair comparisons is very
limited.

San Francisco Division advised by communication
dated 1/2/74% as follows:

b6

| JU. S. Parachute Associa-
bIC

tion, Monterey, California, has advised his office staff is
rather small and his own work schedule usually crowded and
therefore, he would prefer checks of his records be limited

to those suspects on whom he might provide worthwhile infor-
mation. If any suspect has not been eliminated through other
investigation, and should the FBI desire other specific infor-
mation not otherwise obtained but which _might be available
from the U. S. Parachute Association, ill furnish

same from his records.

container with matching harness, without "D" rings to attach
an auxiliary parachute. The parachute has a 28-foot white
nylon flat circular canopy with a specially fitted foam padded
cushion. The pilot chute is also white. The "chest pack"
parachute used by Unsub. was a training pack dummied up to
look like a good parachute for training purposes. It has no
pilot chute and its canopy is white in color,

On 11/22/73, the Portland, Oregon Journal Newspaper
offered a reward of $1,000 for the first missing $20 bill
"tmacovered from the loot collected two years ago by D. B.
COOPER, the still missing parachuting airplane hijacker."

In a Portland, Oregon Journal article dated 11/26/73, the
following information was published:

"The Journal is making its 'Secret Witness' plan
available for use in helping recover the 'Cooper cash,' the
$200,000 that disappeared the night of Nov. 24, 1971, with
the parachuting hijacker popularly known as D. B. COOPER.

"The plan can be used with or separate from the
newspaper's offer to pay $1,600 for the first $20 bill to be
turned in that can be verified by the FBI to be part of the
money Cooper obtained from Northwest Orient Airlines prior
to jumping from a jetliner he had commandeered. It can be used
to return the money, enter into negotiations for its returnor
to provide information on the whereabouts of the elusive hijacker.

"The 'Secret Witness! plan will enable someone with one

or more of the missing bills to surrender the money and still keep
'his or her identity secret.

"Here is how to use the plan:

"1. Place the money in a place of your choosing
and write down instructions for locating it. .

"2, Do not sign your name, but on both: lower
corners of the first page write a code, using any combin-
ation of numbers and letters.

"3, Tear off one of the corners, making a jagged
tear. Keep the torn off corner bearing your code and: mail
the report containing the duplicate code to 'Secret Witness,!
The Journal, 1320 SW Broadway, Portland, Ore. 97201.

"The Journal will forward your information to the
FBI which will pick up the money and verify whether it is
indeed from the Cooper ransom. If it is, that fact will be
published in the newspaper.

"After that, give the torn off corner you have kept
to a trusted friend or to an attorney or to your minister with
instructions to take it directly to the Secret Witness plan
coordinator at The Journal. If the codes and torn edges match,
your agent will be given the $1,000 for the first $20 of the
'Cooper cash! to be turned in."

In addition to the above reward, b6
| Northwest Orient Airlines, authorized a Finder's BIC
fee of $25,000 total reward or 15% of any portion of the D.B.

COOPER ransom money that is returned.

Finally, the Seattle Post Intelligencer Newspaper
has offered a $5,000 reward in connection with its "Secret
Witness Program" for information leading to the arrest and
conviction of the person responsible for this crime.

On 11/29/73, the following article was published
in the Tacoma, Washington News Tribune under the headline
"Skyjacker Cooper: Still A Folk Hero, Still A Mystery":

"Two years after parachuting from a Northwest
Airlines jet with $200,000 in ransom money, the skyjacker
known as Dan Cooper remains a folk hero and a mystery.

"He is, according to the U. S. Department of
Transportation, the only person ever to hijack a domestic
airliner who has not been killed or brought to justice.

" ™We really know nothing mre about him today
than we did at 11 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24, 1971,' says
|special agent in charge of the Portland " be
FBI office. ; b7C

"Authorities said this is what happened on that
Thanksgiving Eve:

"A man , who gave his name as Dan Cooper bought a
one-way ticket at Portland International Airport to Seattle
aboard Northwest Airlines' Flight 305 which originated in
Washington, D.C.

"No antihijacking measures were in operation as
the 36 passengers boarded the Boeing 727 for the 25-minute
flight.

"Once in the air, Cooper handed stewardess L__ | b6
&@ note saving he had a bomb. Following Cooper's bic
orders, sat beside the skyjacker and wrote down
instructions to the pilot.

"He wanted 10,000 $26 bills to be delivered to him
at Seattle in a laundry sack, along with two sets of parachutes.
Otherwise he threatened to blow up the plane.

"Airline officials and Federal Bureau of Investiga-
tion agents complied with his requests and Cooper allowed
the passengers and two of the three stewardesses to disembark
at Seattle.

"Then he ordered the plane to fly south to Reno,
Nev., at 200 miles per hour, at 10,000 feet, flaps down. The
erew was to stay in the cockpit.

"After takeoff from Seattle, a red light flashed in
the cockpit indicating the plane's rear boarding ramp had been
unlatched.

"Nothing was heard from Cooper for about 20 minutes.
At 8:10 p.m., as the_plane crossed the Lewis River in south-
western Washington, thought the hijacker b6
was having trouble with the ramp and Called back over the plane's = »b7C
interphone:

"Anything we can do for you?"

"There was no answer,

"Another light flashed showing the ramp was fully
"extended. A few seconds later the hijacker came back on the

interphone: "No."

"That was the last ever heard of him.

"When the plane landed in Reno, the rear ramp was
down and Cooper was gone. The 21-pound sack of money was
gone. One set of parachutes was gone. The skyjacker, who
had carefully reclaimed his note to the stewardess, had left
no fingerprints.

"Authorities believed Cooper jumped from the plane
near Woodland, Wash. The town was transformed into a bustling
command post for a small army of newsmen and dozens of FBI
agents, police and soldiers from Ft. Lewis.

"With planes, helicopters, Jeeps and track dogs,
they combed the vast, densely wooded region northeast of
Woodland. Much of it was rugged terrain, thick with freshly
fallen snow, and virtually impassable.

"The hijacker left the plane clad only in a light
business suit and street shoes. He parachuted into the black-
ness of a raging thunderstorm, into a 200 m.p.h. hour wind
and temperatures of minus 7 degrees.

"He could not have survived, police reasoned. They
Said they were simply looking for a body and a bag of money
and that could wait until the spring thaw. A week later
the army of searchers was disbanded.

"In the ensuing months Cooper became a legend in
the Northwest - pictured as a lone Robin Hood who stole from
a giant corporation, hurt no one and got away. A song ex-
tolling his feat became a hit. "D. B. Cooper, Where Are
You?" Tee shirts sold by the thousands.

"The media had erroneously identified the skyjacker
as D. B. rather than Dan Cooper.

"Then, late in March, 1972, 300 soldiers from Ft.
Lewis searched the thawing terrain for 18 days. They fourd
not a trace of Cooper, 'although we_did find a body and cleared
up a local murder.' says FBI agent .

" 'We investigated every report and so far have
proved that the various men reported to be Cooper could not
have been the man on Flight 305.'[ says.

" tWe have no physical evidence to go on except
the $20 bills,' he said, adding the numbers of all 10,009
bills were circulated to banks in a 34-page booklet. None
has turned up. ,

"Northwest Airlines, which offered a $25,000
reward for recovery of the ransom, has canceled the offer.

"But last week, on the second anniversary of the
hijacking, the Oregon Journal newspaper offered $1,009 to -
anyone who could produce one of the $20 bills. There have
been no takers.

says a number of PBI agents have worked
on the case, to no avail."

The Seattle Division advised Minneapolis by airtel
dated 7/23/73 as follows:

It is possible that Unsub. made a trial run or
runs prior to NORJAK, with the purpose of perfecting his
hijack plan. If passenger lists of flights from Portiand
to Seattle for two weeks prior to NORJAK could be obtained
the names on these lists could be compared to NORJAK indices,
and other lists currently on file at Seattle in order to
possibly identify Unsub.

In an attempt to determine if Unsub. made a trial
run prior to NORJAK, Northwest Orient b6
Airlines, Seattle, Washington, was contacted and furnished b7C
the following information:

Records of reservations are stored in Northwest Orient
Airline Univac Computer Systems and can be retrieved as far
back as 5 years. Copies of tickets sold by Northwest Orient
Airlines are on file and can also be reviewed.

Concerning the above, the Minneapolis Division ad-
vised that tapes recording passengers of all Northwest Orient
Airlines flights are maintained by Northwest Orient Airlines
only six (6) months. The tapes are then erased and reused.

No passenger lists for Northwest Orient Airlines flights from

Portland to Seattle from 11/10/71 to 11/23/71 are in existence.

; The San Francisco Division advised by airtel dated
11/21/73 of the following:

On 11/19/73, |
Novato, California, advised as Trollows:

Since he had seen the movie "Airport" on television
he has given a great deal of thought as to how this crime was
perpetrated. He stated that he was principally interested in
obtaining any reward that might be forthcoming for furnishing
information concerning this case. He also stated that he had
formally worked on airplanes and was familiar with them; how-
ever, he did not know the difference between a Boeing 727 and
a 737.

In egsence,[____| theory is that the hijacker was
prebably a mechanic for Northwest Orient Airlines and at some
time prior to the hijacki i access to this particular
aircraft. According to | | any confident mechanic, if
given enough time, could remove panels from the airplane,
either in the floor or restroom area, secrete. himself in the
space after fashioning some kind of device to pull the panel
or floor in behind him. He suggested that the hijacker could
have gotten into the cargo area and hidden in a bex in the
above manner. [—__] theory was that a mechanic with the
Airline could have accomplished these things at any time when
the aircraft was having a major overhaul.

It should be pointed out that in all probability
the hijacker jumped from the aircraft since there was evidence
of a pressure change when the stairwell ciosed apparently
after a heavy object jumped from the stairs. The same pres-
sure change occurred when a subsequent demonstration was con-
ducted by throwing a 150 lb. object from the stairs.

The Minneapolis Division advised by communication
dated 1/4/74 as follows:

|
| advised. Orient Airlines, was contacted on 1L2Z/l//i/3.

advised that it would be virtually impossible for

"unknown subject to remove panels from the airplane, either in

the floor or restroom area, in order to secrete himself under
the floor of the airplane. He advised that in order to remove
the panels, rivets must be removed. He advised that the floor
panels are small and it would require the removal of several
of the panels in order for a man to secrete himself under the
floor. Jadvised that an individual very familiar with
the aircraft could get from the cabin area to the cargo area
using internal passages. He advised that if the individual
accomplished this feat, he would experience extreme cold. He
advised that the air pressure in the cargo area is adjusted

and could be tolerated by an individual.

Lea aavised that when the 727 aircraft landed BE
after the hijacking incident, it was thoroughly inspected. BIC
He advised that flooring was removed in both the passenger

and restroom sections, floor panels were removed, and the

entire cargo area was inspected, as well as all cargo con-
tained in that area. [__Jaavises that it was his opinion

Time: 1030 hrs.

AIRPORT POLICE

FROM:

TO: via Chain of Command

SUBJECT: Suspicious Person

At approximately 1030 hours this date while on duty at "C" Checkpoint, a man
came up to the Scanray who looked very familiar to R/O. The first thing that
caught my eye was his hair, and I thought it was D. B. Cooper who hijacked —_
Northwest Airlines flight 305 on 11-24-71. The description IT got from

ljooking at him was as follows: approximately 6' tall, 170 Ibs., black hair
(receding), W/M/A, age in 40's, olive complexion, wearing a brown suit and
carrying a briefcase approximately 14" long, 10" high and 4" wide. When he
arrived at the checkpoint the first thing he did was put out a cigarette in

the ash can. He looked at me and immediately turned his head. The description
of subject on composite is as follows: W/M, middle 40's, 5' 10" to 6°,

170 - 180 ibs., dark brown or black hair, heavy smoker, wearing black or

brown suit, carrying brief case. 4

After I had been relieved on the checkpoint, I came up to the office to

see if we had a picture of subject_and none could be found. I went back to
the detectives' office and asked and he said he would recognize
him if he saw him. We 'both then went down to C+6 and they were boarding
the flight. | |said that it was very close resemblance. We stood
so that as they were walking to the gate we could get a face-on view and
when he saw us, he put his boarding pass under his nose to hide his mouth.
We let him board and I then contacted FAA and gave them the information and

they tock over.

On October 25, 1974, Sheriff SAM DOYLE of
the Sierra County, California, Sheriff's Office,
telephonically advised the Sacramento Division of
the FBI that some hunters in the vicinity of Sierra-
ville, Caiifornia, had located some property which
he wished to bring to the attention of the FBI in
view of the skyjacking case in which an individual
known as D. B. COOPER parachuted from the craft
approximately two years ago.

DOYLE stated that the hunters found among
other things a harnass which probably was a portion
of a parachute or parachutes. He advised that there
were other quantities of what appeared to be camping
equipment. He stated that the material found, however,
was extremely deteriorated and it appeared that it
probably had been exposed to the elements for ten_or
more ars. He advised that he believed that fis ~

was determined by his department that the property

could in no way_have been associated with the sky-
jacking connected with D. B. COOPER within the past

two or three years. He said there were large quantities
of what appeared to be camping equipment and it was

feit that the property had been exposed to the elements
for at least ten years.

He stated that there formerly was a para-
médic training facility operating out of the stead
Air Base near Reno, Nevada, and that trainees and
instructors from that facility often parachuted into
and trained in the Sierraville area.

He stated that he was quite certain that
the highly deteriorated property found had been left
by those trainees.

| lJadvised that after coming to
that conclusion he had disposed of the property at
the Sierraville dump.

On October 25, 1974, a physical observation
at the Sierraville dump concluded the discarded property
could not be located.

NORJAK

On 12/3/74, an anonymous male caller, loud and possibly
elderly, telephonically called the Seattle FBI Office and
asked the writer if he was an "authority or a flunky." I
gave him my name and position, and he demanded he be connected
to a special agent. I asked him what information he had, and
he then explained that he tried to talk to SAG JULIUS MATTSON,
FBI Pordland, but could not get through to him. He said
he will mail us a List of questions in a couple of days,
and those questions will deal with captioned matter. He
said the crime was a "great thing," and that fifteen people
took part in it, not one. He then,said he would like to
be there when the Victim plane is Sesearched by the FBI.

He would not explain further.

The caller was asked if he will have his name on the
communication, so as to enable the FBI to contact him in
the future if something needed clarification. He said
that he would put a lot of numbers at the end and we could
figure out the rest.
