of the Northwest Orient Airlines plane on Thanksgiving
Eve of 1971. A part of this article carried a portion of
amap and copy of "FBI artist 1971 Composit Sketch of D.

Be COOPER."

After first seeing the article and the sketch
in this particular article, she immediately had a feeling
she knew the person involved, but did not have the nerve
to call the FBI or anyone else at that time.

On several subsequent occasions, she intended
to call the FBI and finally about 6:00 pem., April 4, 1975,
she decided to contact the FBI at Davenport, Iowa, but
got no response so while she still had the courage, then
called the Portland, Oregon, Office.

_. A-#et Gavs_ago 1 wrote to you mentioning the name of

Perhaps I did not give you much to go on at that time.

Now I think I can do better. A few years ago there was
& commercial airplana hijacked in Oregon. The hijacker
Was given the money he demanded, and a parachute. He
escaped by parachuting from the airplane.

My recollection of this incident is that the hijacker was
of an age that made it possible that he was a paratrooper
during World War II. Certainly he had confidence in his
Parachute, and knew what conditions were required. He

'had the airplane slow down to a jumping speed before he jumped.

It is possible that he made things easier for you by applying

for a passport soon afterwards, if not beforehand. It is

also possible that he did not pose for-his own passport photo,

dut used the photo of someone else, but I think not. He

probably did not realize that nobody looks at those photos.

b6

If you should get the passport photo of |

and show it to the hijacked aircrew, you might heave somethin: b7C

right there. Even if the time limits for prosecution have
expired, it should be possible to recover the money.

I do not really know that anything is wrong until something is
very plain to see. That was the case with the above subject.

I couid only suspect because certain things did not seem right.
I am writing to you again now because I am not sure about
something else.

| Jadvised he was hunting at a point going bé6
toward Sardine Foint, past the first dog-leg curve, which is b7C

about a mile from this point, up to the second dog-leg, which
is probably ahout two miles from this point on the Lemon Canyon
Road.

| Inoted that he went from the top portion be
of this second doq-leg road down to the road below, which he bic
estimated to he maybe 200-400 yards across. The parachute
was located under a snag tree, about 18 inches in diameter,
over the tov of another log, causing it to he ahout six inches
off the ground. The parachute was under this nortion and had
it have heen pushed back two feet further, would have been out
of view. He aiso noted that these logs were about halfway
hetween the upper road and the lower road or about_190-200
yards from each road, the upper and lover roads. | |
advised he estimated he started down from the unper road to
the lower road across this area ahout 200 vards south of the
eeqe of the doq-leo or switchrack in the dirt road. The parachute,
which is orange and white in color, has been furnished to the
Pureau. The parachute, accordina tol } was all twisted
up, as if to make a rope out of it, and then rolled um prior to
heing nut under the log. He estimated that there were approxi-
mately seven panels and it apnears as if it had heen cut in half,
indicatina the jumper may have gotten hunq up in a tree,

|}further noted that from the upper portion bé }
of this roac, he could Look down across the canyon to the lower b7C |
road, where he had his camper~-pickup parked by a culvert and ,
that is where he was heading at the time he found the parachute.

Ie advised the area around the parachute was rocky, with very

little timber and only a few windfalls. Ne said approximately

30-50 feet from where he found the parachute, under the log, he

located, | Jtwo trees together, one being a yellow

pine and the other a real biq juniper tree, on the hill. He

said in looking up the one tree, he noted that near the top,

about 65 feet up, was evidence that a limh, approximately

one and one half inches in diameter, had been broken off.

Relow this, approximately 10 feet, he noted another limb,

two and one half inches by ahout three inches, had heen broken

off and helow this, ali the way down the tree, were other limbs

that appeared to have been broken off. Ne said he could not

estimate the aqe of these limbs or when they were proken-ott—

but that they did not appear to have been recent. b6é
advised he speculated that maybe the parachute had been cut bic
in half to make a rone so that the jumper could have lowered

himself from the tree if he had been hung up in the tree. He

then could have placed half of the parachute under the log,

where it was found, and kept the other half to keep warm and

maybe use the harness on the parachute as a pack rack to carry

out whatever he had with him.

bé6

| jJadvised he was formerly in the U. &. bec

Yorest Service and he noted that the parachute he recovered
was Similar to parachutes used hy the forest service smole
jumpers. Fowever, the parachutes the forest service used,
althouch similar in color, were usually larger than this
particular one.

| | further noted that approximately one b6é
mile northeast of where he found the parachute, near the b7¢c
Rear Valley Poad, is a qrass level meadow area, about 290
acres in size. In addition, south of this area, approximately
one mile down Lemon Canyon Road, is another qrass meadow Flat
area, approximatelv 200 acres in size.

bé6

Tn addition, | |noted that there is a -
¢C

verv small airport at fSierraville, California, and that the
beacon Liaht from this airport shines in the direction of
where the parachute was found.

Jadvised he recalled that the hijacker bé6
in the instant case had the pilot fly at an elevation _of bic
approximately 10,000 feet en route to Reno, Nevada.
noted that on the map, the elevation of Sardine Peak is
8,134 feet, whereas the elevation at Sardine Point, in the
same general area, is only 7,575 feet. | advised
the hijacker may have known this and planned to land in one
of the two above descrihed meadows and missed his target
but realized the plane would have to flv at 10,900 feet in
order to miss Sardine Peak.

| advised another strange thing is that b6
going southwest on Lenon Canyon Road from the junction, about BIC
five miles from where he turned northwest on the junction, was
located an old car, white in color. He advised this car was
also located in a very strange place. He noted that it had,
apparently, been driven off the dirt road, up under the trees,
He said it is now on its side but obviously had to be driven
to the point where it is now instead of towed there and ahandoned.
Ye said there are no houses or any people in this remote area,

huntina.

Specimen Q3 consists of the remnants of an orange

does not have the necessary reference information to determine
the origin or normal utilization af the 03 parachute.

Because of the climatic variables involved, the age
of Q3 and the duration of time it was concealed under a log

Dear

Unfortunately, there remains only a Limited number
of copies of the ransom list. It therefore is not possible
to send copies of the list to everyone requcsting them.

Night I suggest, if you have a serial nurbor you
wish to check, to contact your local sheriff's office or
bank as they should both be in possession of the ransom
list.

Ag you know, it is only through the cooperation
by citizens such as yourself that this epimne might be
solved, Thank you for your interest in this matter.

Sincerely,

On this date| | Portland /<

Oregon televhonically contacted writer re captioned matter.

He stated that he has received several news clips re this
matter and 4th, anniversary of offense on 11/24/75, He specifically
referred to a speech writer made to Footprinters } i 1
re NORJAK at Aberdeen, Washington,as reflected in
on 12/24/75.

[| stated that heand his camera crew plan to be in
the Longview area on 12/8,9 and 10/75 to film footage re widening
of IS 5 and other matters of interest to their viewing audience
in Ore gon. and Washington. He stated that, in view of thereeent
anniversary of NQ® JAK matter, that he desired an interview with
the FBI concerning this matter and stated he felt this could
possibly generate interest in viewers who may have information
of value in this matter but have not come forward at this time.

He stated he would be in Longview at 10:90 AM, 12/10/75
and hopefully interview with FBI could take place at that time.

In view of negative efforts to date to locate and/or identify
UNSUB in this matter the writer feels such an interview has
potential investigative and lead value, and would excellent vehicle
for SAC to again acquaint public with facts of this matter.

Writer will be in Hq City on 12/9/75 for file review for
discussion re above matter if such is deemed advisable,
