On 12/3/71 [REDACTED] [REDACTED] Elsinore Paricenter, Inc., Parachute Jumping Center located at Elsinore, California, made available registration cards of parachutists who have jumped from the center. SAs EDWARD A. ROMAHOFF and [REDACTED] reviewed approximately 12,000 cards and picked out those with physical descriptive data matching that of the hijacker, including ages between 35 - 55 years, weight between 150 - 190 and height from 5'8 - 6'1. Also included were a number of younger borderline cards. Four hundred and thirty three registration cards were photographed, representing those jumpers who registered at the Elsinore center since 1969 and fit within the above descriptive limits.

[REDACTED] advised that registration cards prior to 1969 do not contain height data and estimated that there are approximately 18,000 cards on file prior to that year and dating back to 1957.

On 12/3/71, [REDACTED] who was at the Elsinore center for the day, furnished further information as set forth on an FD-302:
