photography business and had made application for a.$50,000
loan prior to the hijacking, and although the loan was turned
down about a week after NORJAK, WHITEFORD seemed to be quite
unconcerned, although the lack of money would be quite
injurious to his business. Further WHITEFPORD is 2 pilot and
because of his business in map making, is familiar with the
terrain in the State of Washington.

On 1/17/72, pictures which had been made a few
days priox while WHITEFORD was in the Mercer Island Branch
of the above bank, were made available to the Seattle Office
of the PBI.

Re: Seattle memo of SA DONALD J. STEELE, 12/17/71,
regarding suspect JAY WHITEFORD.

Attached is a copy of the subject's autobiography.

On January 14, 1972, _ _ |} »b6
the Seattié First National Bank, Mercer Island Branch, was b7C
interviewed concerning NORJAK suspect JAY WHITEFORD.

| stated that WHITEFORD originally applied for
a loan of > in October of 1971, for his business, which is
an aerial photography business. WHITEFORD's:application for

a loan was declined about one week after NORJAK.

b6
b7C

hecame suspicious because WHITEFORD never
experienced any great Sean Po thouche th his loan
application was turned down; | thought that Mr. WHITEFORD
should be upset because lake of the loan would mean failure of
Mr. WHITEFORD's business.

On December 3, 1971. WHITEFORD at the Mercer
Island Branch to discuss business with and at this time
EFORD's right hand was bandaged, en questioned by

jas to the nature of his injury, WHITEFORD replied that
he had merely taken a tumble. .

It should be noted that WHITEFORD is a pilot and be-
cause of his aerial mapmaking business, would be very familiar
with high altitude flying and the terrain around the area of
where NORJAK took place. It is to be further noted that WHITEFORD
is a mewber of the Washington Council of Civil Engineering and
Land Surveyors. [b4- Gf ;

suspicions were further heightened while' Pe
lunch with Mr. WHITEFORD on January 6, 1972, at the Black Angus oJ7"°
Restaurant in Bellevue. Mr. WHITEFORD initiated a discussion of
hRigh altitude flying. WHITEFORD seemed to be very well known_b
'the waitresses in the Black Angus Restaurant in Be
again believed this to be out of character for a
financial condition to frequent an expensive res

(4f jumpers carried) 'and a cargo master.. Probably. a very

across a@ gorge not far from end of runways,'

3..The collar of the tall suspect,, (headless horseman

and the pilot struck up a

conversation. While flying

over the Great Falis area,

asked the pilot if he knew the identity of any of

the buildings below them. The pilot identified many of the
buildings, indicating that he had flown over ee
the
su

times in the past. In addition the pilot told

requirements for landing an

aireraft at a field as

that required in Great Falls, Montana. Through conversation
it was obvious to that the pilot was familiar with
both Missoula and Great Falls airports. then asked
about the aircraft which was a 727 and asked the pilot if
there was a build-in skid that hit the ground every time

on the take-off which produced a characteristic noise. The
pilot then responded, no, that the noise heard was the

we all had to jump. It was a hell of a thrill." bé

then sald one word "Thailand?" at which time the pilot . bic

responded "something like that" (indicating no), The pilot b7D

further stated that he hadn't been able to get a job flying

raft as a civilian due to his lack of flying hours.
emphasized the point that the pilot continually used

the word personnel rather than soldiers and it was noted that

it was not certain whether the pilot was flying for the

military or possibly the CIA. At this point, | dropped

the questioning.

The pilot got off the plane to stretch at Missoula,
Montana. While the pilot was off the plane another man took
his seat, at which time the pilot went to the forward cabin

upon returning to the aircraft. Th ft made an
unscheduled stop at someplace which believes to be b6
Sandpoint, Idaho. The pilot got off fhe plane at this un- b7c

scheduled stop as well and exited the aircraft in his shirt- b7D
sleeves. When the pilot came back aboard the aircraft he
entered with fo en who were all dressed identically. It
is believed by [that these men were either para-
6 or smoke jumpers, both of which it was learned by
have camps within a radius of 30 miles of Sandpoint,
. Oo. When these four men came aboard, one woman seated on
the aircraft reacted by screaming. Another man yelled "What
the hell is going on." "A bunch of motorcycle hoodiums?"
stated that one of the individuals mumbled something
like "We're paratroopers" but the wording at this point was
incoherent. Whatever was said satisfied the man and woman
'who both apologized. The pilot took 'two of these men forward
and said that he could arrange for two of them to sit up
front with him (the pilot). The other two men sat in the
rear of the plane. One of the individuals who went forward
with the pilot, it is felt like looked a great deal
like the artist's conception of the hijacker. who
could have been the hijacker was described by as

follows:
Height: 6' 1" to 6! 2"
Build: Thin
Facial features: Narrow
Hair: Covered by cap
Weight: Unable to determine

Wearing Apparel: Black coat made of a

Washington, D.c.. SENATOR HENRY HM. JACKSON

Dear Senator Jackson::

Your staff may scream not to touch this request
witha ten. foot vole,, but. as a former prosecutor yow
night have an answer forthcoming..

é

Ask the C.I.A... (Central Intelligence Agency)' if they:
or any of their overating companies have ever trained pilots,,
personnel to fly Boing 2727's in low level flight dropping
pereonell and supplies in. other inaccessible pilacgs..

Ask them how many pilots they: have thus trained??
r . . *
| Ask them how. many of 'thease men have returned to
private Life?" . .
Ask them if they: ever used these places to drop- '
Taiwan personnel over south China?"

. ;
This has to do with the $200,000 hijacking of a 727...

In Sevt.. on a 727 Northwest Orient flight from
Minneapdiis to Seattle,, with a seat partner from Miles City
TO Missoula, who said he had flown a 727 "for the military'
and madsnumerous low level drops of personnel and supplies.
Had he ever jumped from a 727?" "Yes,, we all had to jump in
training..It was a hell of a thrili.t'

But Boeing's PiR..man fairly screamed there hasn''t
been. a single 727 in the military inventory... There hasn't
bden a single military pilot trained in a 727, nor have they
ever been used in jump school.. No,, there hag never been
a flight manual prepared,. telling how. to set flaps for jumps.
If the military hadever used such a program, we would have
had a: screaming headline and a full page story with pictures.

At Sandpoint,. Idaho, this "bilot"' got back on the plane
with four identically dressed mon,, whom I' believe were ULS.D.A..
"Smoke jumpers™:. Two of them sat across the aisle,. and the
otner two went forward where tho pilot said he could arrange
for them to set together. and talk. One-of them fits the height--
Gre to 642"). and slim.. And I was looking into-his fac

they discussed seating arrangements.. be

(64-8 reso
. I' believe the man's story... And if the C.I.A.. or Taiwan

ever flew a 727 in: southeast Asia,. the Chinese intelligence... ~.
would have known about it.. So why hide the story! from: the Ii.

Your hijacker - A "smoke jumper" probably, whose I.D.
; might be in the personnel files of District 6, U.S.D. Ag, Portland.

A person probably who had done sqme dumping. fits the general

description, and was seen in company of a person who claimed to
) have piloted a 727 on several missions to drop "personnel and
supplies" and who had jumped from a 727 "in training we all
.jumped. It-was a hell of a thrill," who could have inadvertently

'or deliberately given the technical information. He, the pilot,

4

,
would have to have been an employe of the C.I.A. or one of its
private companies. To have known "smoke jumpers" he might also
have flown for the USDA during fire season.

When I first saw the sketch of the hijacker, my reaction was

'

"I have seen that man." Then I said aloud," "impossible." But on
'{ - a of
"ater recall, I believe yes - it fits the pattern.
' 4

Flight 45, Northwest 727, Monday, September 13. "The Pilot"

got on at Miles City. Stewardess put a "Seattle" pin on the back
of the seat. He did not occupy the seat after Missoula, and the

"stewardess removea theypin after Sand Point.

. ' s
. Ooo

At either Missoula or Sand Point, four persons got on with ~
c' . 2 " .

this "pilot," who caused quite a commotion by their identical dress.
The man directly behind me objected violently, and asked

owhat the hell's going on." And that is when I am sure 1 looked |

"knock it off. We each purchased one seat-- and that's all you bought."
One of the others murmured a word which {I thought might be "paratroopers"
but probably was "smoke jumpers." The man apologized.

The voice was about two to three notes below normal. Even
and pleasant. And even the words, "knock it off" had no rasp or
harshness.

The costumes were totally black. Leather or shiny plastic.
The coats hung from shoulders to knees, straight without any form
fit. The caps were a half-kepi. Instead of a bill the right edge
was twisted into an upright piece in the middle of the forehead.

All wore the type glasses in the sketch. At the hinge, the
earpiece was wide, but of a lacy pattern. No part of the eye

-

visible. .
Two of them sat in the back seat left. The "pilot: said
to the others to come up front, and he would Yarrange" so they could
sit together, and talk. So X got a height comparison. The pilot
about 5' 10". The next one 6° 1" or 6" 2" and slim, -slim. The
third man 5' 11" ox 6'% and broader.
Questions--- ety . .

~~ 2. I am told there is no Dept. of Ag. smoke™yumpers camp

at Sand Point, but there are at least four in Montana and Idaho,
all of whose personnel records are at Portland.

3. I think I recall an article on Smoke Jumpers, where it
described the outlandish costumes some units adopted.

4. kf the C.I.A. or its companies used a 727 for personnel
drops why keep it classified information? If£ they have, the Chinese
intelligence would certainly have known it by now. How many pilots

or jumpers have returned to private life?

a very strong resemblance to the hijacker. "He! particularly
noted the hairline, stating that if the hair in the photo-

would be an exceptionally good likeness. He further noted
strong similarities in the high cheekbones, the long nose,

He was unable to determine from the photograph
the complexion of CATALANO but again emphasized the hi-

One evening about a week ago the friend came by and, in the
process of the conversation, he mentioned that he was going to
have a $200,000 wedding. Jokingly I asked if by some chance
the was in on the hijacking of the airplane. His answer was
yes, and my uncle who lives in the vicinity of Vancouver,
Washington, even looks like the hijacker and even owns a

Cessna 310, is an ex-paratrooper and does sky diving.

The last name of the friend's father is The Pe

'€ather is a pilot and works for City Transfer in Kent, Wash. vo
My son informed me that his friend or his friend's father
went to Portland or vicinity at about the time the hijacking

transpired.

In regards to "D. B. Cooprr" who hijacked the North-
west Orient Airlines 727 on the night of November 24, 1971,
I have the following information:

There is a man named Coovert who works as a Driver's
Examiner for the state in Gresham, Oregon. The man fits the
physical description and wears dark glasses most of the time.
After the time of the hijacking he has become very much less
sociable. The man's history has been somewhat unstable as
far as employment, which includes work in a bank. The above
| information is hearsay but was convincing enough to be very
believable in addition to other information I cannot ac-

curately remember enough to convey correctly.

| California, who
has been engaged in parachute sales, manufacturing, repair
and alterations for about 47 years, was contacted relative
to suspects and general information in connection with this
matter. has been contacted previously, primarily
in connection with IGP cases in which a few parachutes
reportedly stolen, were sent to him for alterations.

is apparently well regarded in this business and from
previous contacts with him, it appears that he does repair
and alteration work for numerous sky divers throughout the
United States,

| Jadvised he can suggest no specific b6
suspects, primarily due 'to the Fatt that he has very pre
limited personal contact with his customers. He advised
that most of his work is sent to him by the owner and that
he returns it to the owner by mail or other commercial

delivery. 49 |

ladvised he had reviewed his records
relative to the name COOPER and located only two matters
under that name. He advised on 12/10/70, he shipped some
Material to ROBERT D. COOPER, 23 West Galer, Apt. 309,
Seattle, Washington. On 8/16/71, he shipped some material
to ROBERT COOPER, P. O. Box 405, Snohomish, Washington.
He advised he has no reason to consider the above as
suspects other than the last name. He also advised from
the handwriting on the letters received requesting material,
it is likely that these are the same persons, as the hand-
writing is similar. The handwriting is available, should
it be desired for comparison purposes.

| advised the only central records he
knows of regarding a mailing List for sky divers or clubs
would be the association in Monterey, California, which
distributes a magazine nationwide and should have a mailing

List.

advised that he doubts the person who
committed this crime was a sky diver. He noted that he
has heard that the parachutes furnished to the man were a
commercial brand named "Pioneer" and a now surplus Navy

' parachute designated "NB-8", He stated if this is a fact,

he doubts the man is a sky diver inasmuch as anyone with
sky-diving experience would have asked for a sky-diving
type parachute, which neither of the above are.

further advised that the above paradutes
would be hazardous to use inasmuch as that type of chute
would open very quickly, with a possibility of tearing,

and both have a high rate of descent and very Limited
control. In his opinion, a person using such a chute would
probably have prior military jumping experience but would
not have sky=diving experience. He further noted that an
experienced sky diver would have asked for a chute such as
a ""Para-Commander", which would be readily available in an
area such as Seattle, Washington. This type of parachute
opens more slowly, is very maneuverable, and has a much
Slower rate of descent.

very loyal to COLE as well as a somewhat confused individual.

in view of the above, it is suggested the enclosed

advised to the contrary by office of origin.

Re New Suspect: RAYMOND "TORREY HEALD,
Born 3/30/39

PS -

PETE (NMN} PICCIOLO, born 6/7/36, was recently
referred to the Los Angeles Division as a possible suspect ;
in this matter as a known parachutist who had seriously
injured himself about one and one-half years ago. PICCIOLO's
whereabouts on 11/24/72 1, was positively established through
payroll records at his place of employment, Weber Air-
craft Company, Burbank, California, where exemination of
time cards revealed he was at his ermloyment the entire

day of 11/24/71.

On 8/1/73, PICCIOLO, an avid parachutist who
travels widely and writes articles concerning parachuting,
was interviewed at his residence, 626 East Angéleno,
Apartment I, Burbank, California. PICCIOLO studied the
artist's conception and advised he believed it resembled

a parachutist named RAYMOND T. HEALD. He noted that HEALD
would probably not be considered in his mid forties unless Ay
disguised and recalled him to be in his early thirties. e
'new HEALD to have been familiar with the Seattle, Washington
and Portland, Oregon areas and believed him capable of such

a crime. He advised he had last seen HEALD about two years
ago in Antioch, California, at which time HEALD indicated

he was training to be an air controller. The only specific
information he knew was that HEALD's wife ha@ worked for
awhile at Weber Aircraft Company where he, PICCIOLO, had

aiso been employed. ,

On the same date, records of Weber Aircraft
Company revealed RITA R. HEALD was erployed as a seamstress
at Weber Aircraft from 1969 to 2/5/70. She had furnished
her prior employments as the Elks Club, 515 S.W. Broadway,
Portland, Oregon, during 1962 and the Jolly Joan Restaurant,
1314 Auburn Avenue, Auburn, Washington, from February to
October 1963. She was a cocktail waitress on both occasions. ~) /
Her husband was shown as RAYMOND T. HEALD, born 3/30/39, 3
and former addresses were indicated as 8024 Woodman Avenue, wr
Van Nuys, California, and 14701 Rayen, Apartment 103, ( 22)
Panorama City, California.

On 8/2/73,| b6

} and
recalled | [RAY HEALD. They advised about April 1971,
HEALD had some type of trouble at the Air Control Center

for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at Palmdale,
California, and was transferred to the Santa Monica,
California Airport as an air controller. He had then applied
for a position in Denver, Colorado, but something happened

at. the. last minute md he did not get the job in Denver.
Sometime shortly after April 1971, the HEALDs indicated

they were moving to Seattle or Portland where it was their

understanding RAY was to work at an unknown aixport. They

had assume@ that he was working an an air controller until

receipt of a Christmas card from RITA HEALD in December

1972, at which time RITA advised that RAY was attending

college and working as a part-time disc jockey in Ashland,

Oregon. He was studying to be a television sportscaster. b6
A return address on the card displayed byl indicated bI7C
the HEALDs resided at 901 Beach Street, Ashland, Oregon 97520.
_jadvised, after Viewing the artist's conception,

that the eyes, nose and mouth of the artist's conception

were similar to those of RAY HEALD. | Icouild note

no Similarity. They described HEALD as a white male in his

SSEty ThIeticn, 5'11", 186 pounds, dark brown hair, rugged,

outdoor, well-tanned complexion, well spoken, polite, and

handsome appéaring. They recalled that almost the entire

time they knew HEALD from mid 1970 to about April 1971,

he was Clean shaven; however, just prior to his departure

he was noted to be growing a beard.

On 8/3/73, [_ b6

Santa Monica Airport Terminal Tower, Santa Monica, California, on

advised RAYMOND T. HEALD was personally known to him. In
early 1971 he was advised by his superiors that HEALD, an
air controller trainee at Palmdale, California, was being
transferred to Santa Monica as a result of numerous problems
he was involved in at Palmdale. [____]confidentially
stated it was indicated to him that HEALD should be fired
but due to the manner in which reams of evidence had been
mishandled, his superiors did not feel a 'hearing at this
time was feasible. He stated that among allegations was the
fact that HEALD was involved in the sale of marijuana to
trainees at the Air Control Center, Palmdale. Shortly after
his arrival at Santa Monica, HEALD was known to be abusing
the privilege of trainees wherein they wexe allowed to fly
in the cockpits of aircraft to study traffic. On one specific

occasion, HEALD traveled in the cockpit to Phoenix,

Arizona, then called from Phoenix just prior to the time

he was due on duty at Santa Monica stating he was sick.

It was learned that actually HEALD was judging a parachuting
contest in Phoenix.

| [stated HEALD had started as a trainee bé6
in Phoenix, was later transferred to Alaska, and in 1968 b7C
or 1969 was assigned as a trainee at Palmdale, California. aa
HEALD had recently married a "flashy-looking blonde"
whom described as the cocktail waitress or bunny type,
and was several years older than HEALD. At the time HEALD
left due to his resignation on 4/17/71, he indicated he was
going to Oregon and just relax, Several months later
{believed to be eight or nine months) in early 1972, HEALD
stopped briefly at the Santa Monica Airport and indicated
he was doing real well in Oregon, but no specifics were
discussed. HEALD was noted at the time of this brief
appearance to be wearing a light beard and | recalled
that just prior to his departure for Oregon in April he
had very long haix and a long beard.
[_jadded that HEALD was a real "drum beater" b6
and appeared to have a real grudge against the FAA or the non
~government...in, seneral.
On 8/6/73, b6

RE: SGT. DON JOHN PAGE, SUSPECT

On 10/26/72, while speaking before the Oregon-
Washington Law Enforcement Officers Association_at the
Sea-Tac Motor Inn, Seattle, I was contacted by

bé
b7c
Multnomah County Department of Public Safety.

[__|asked if we had checked out captioned suspect
in this matter, pointing out that PAGE was a pilot, a smoke

jumper and looked very much like the sketch of UNSUB.

He felt that PAGE was definitely capable of performing
this feat.

-LEAD

The indices should be checked and if PAGE has not

been checked out as a suspect, investigation should be
instituted to have it done.

JOHN DONALD PAGE

On 2/8/72 witness CORD SPRECKEL was displayed
photographs of JOHN DONALD PAGE (Sub 193). SPRECKEL stated that
based on the photographs of PAGE which were displayed to him
he could not positively eliminate PAGE as a suspect in the
captioned hijacking. SPRECKEL stated that the hijacker
appeared to be about the same age as PAGE in his opinion and
there are facial characteristics which are similar to that of
'the hijacker. SPRECKEL stated that he would not positively
identify PAGE as the hijacker, but stated that he felt it would
be in the best interest of the FBI if he did not eliminate
PAGE aS a suspect because there is a slight possibility PAGE
could be identical with the hijacker.
