Himmelsbach: "If I was still on duty and it were up to me, I’d say, ‘This guy is a ‘must investigate.’” Really...? Even though by Himmy's own words he's "too short" , "too light" and has the "wrong hair color"?? Seems to me that if 8 years is any indicator, this guy wouldn' t even rate a POI. OD

I always assumed he wanted them down so that no one would know when he jumped, the sooner they were down, the sooner he could send Tina and her fly-ble to the cabin. Very good possibility. On American owned airlines in the 70's & 80's FAs were well schooled in things like safety and exits and...

One thing about Kenny C. is that we was an FA. This may not mean much, but there is something I've been thinking about, aside from someone at NW recognizing him on the fight or in the terminal. It's not that much, but a small chink. It's what made American airlines different from foreign ones...

Niner, Good to hear from you again. We've got to keep this going. One of the DD quotes in an email I received back in NOV (one of the last) was that he was "never so sure of anything in his life", referring to TM as Cooper. Understanding just how thorough he was, he'd covered all that could...

You've got a VERY good point Albert. Since the beginning of this case there have been claims that the temperature, not even discussing the rain, would have killed him. Nonsense! If you watch the KOIN segments on youtube the jumpmaster they interview said that the jump would be "no problem"...

Anyone could pick up a DNA sample from anyone at any time. The true question pertains to the FBI control sample that came from of all sources...the tie. It is troubling that the FBI couldn't produce the cigarette butts, and agent Carr states that he's got techs "looking for them". Gotta' be...

Thank you LD. I think that everyone who participated on this forum or knew Dan feels the same way. Moving on, I completely agree with RC on the FBI and the new agent. I had high hopes on the announcement they were going public with much of the information, but the more Carr speaks the more...

Cooper did not specify a route. They actually swayed off course of V23. He did give the initial notice on paper, but gave the demands to the Flo verbally. He asked for the handwritten note back, so the FBI does not have it. Very possible. However since the plane might have been off course...

Rightcoast, I wanted to express how deeply saddened I am by the loss of a friend. He will be missed by many and all. My sympathies to his family. He was indeed a good man, and a great sleuth. I am sorry this is so late, but I haven't visited this site for some time. This site will never be...

How on earth would he do that, when he can't even check the alibi of the most suspicious call(THAT HE TOOK) the night of the jacking? Yeah, that's the big one. He's smart enough not to lie, but not checking is beyond credibility. Yes but 20/20 hind is always "wiser". Let's just say he's as...

Not possible. The chutes were req. at Sea-Tac, but the plane originated in Portland. Light bulb!!! Who else?? Oh I fogot, Himmy didn't know any skydivers, or at least none that would pull off a take over.....hmmm....suspended sentence for A/R in 71?? Naw....he's independently wealthy...

I agree, but is it for a different reason? WHAT GIVES LC? OD

I've said it before, there's got to more to this. Just one plane/faa incident?...not so sure. "Never known Teddy to smoke....you?" Doesn't sound like one incident. You no doubt realize the value of this. With this story, Teddy will *never* be able to write the "they called me/I called...

Especially since the Himmy calling Teddy on that night would show some sort of friendship, not that it doesn't already the other way around, and that Himmy knew where he was since there were no cell phones back then. It's just that Himmy has no control over Teddy calling, but if Teddy has...

I'm still wondering just how well the two knew each other. I'm still thinking there may be more to this. Another thing that really bothers me is how relatively unfettered H-B was when confronted with Teddy's claim that the FBI called him 3 times. He should have stated emphatically that that...

Isn't this a guy he supposedly had kicked out of the Portland Airport not too long ago? And this is the first time in who knows how long he's spoken to Teddy-boy and he immediately shares details of the case with him...on the phone? ???? And he hasn't. Once was enough ;). All the...

Now why would they ever want to do that? A non family member, non official person wants to speak to Himmy in the thick of a Skyjacking-that is still in progress- and he's transferred right over or given his whereabouts, or the phone number? It was important that Teddy speak to Himmy directly...

Exactly. But when was the last time (not that night) that Teddy had called Himmy for any reason, even to borrow a set of Golf clubs? Light bulb should go off. That's another question I'd sure like to see on another interview. My understanding from somewhere on the internet is that Der...

Does it ever bother you how aware Himmy and Teddy-boy are that he doesn't fit the profile? Add to that that not only is the profile off, but so were both sketches. And the lead investigator not only etches the profile in stone, but then carves out an upper ceiling to 55 years later. Why is...

No it doesn't. Since there is narration over the top of it, I don't think that UM ever expected anyone to listen to it too carefully. Still think that telling her to get up there with her "bible" is kinda' funny. Yup. If you do the math, Tosaw and his boys are going to be busy for quite...
