---

On 12/31/71, [REDACTED], Washington, telephonically advised that [REDACTED] is a former Boeing employee as well as a pilot who owns his own plane; who parachutes and skydives and who could be considered as a suspect for NORJAK.

She advised that he is [REDACTED] and left the Seattle area about two weeks before the hijacking occurred, coming back shortly afterward.

[REDACTED] said she does not desire to furnish a great deal of information concerning him and at first would not disclose his name but offered to send a photograph of [REDACTED] which could be shown to the witnesses and if they considered him a suspect, she would be glad to furnish additional information.

[REDACTED] would not furnish his age or physical description other than to say he is 5'9", and smokes only occassionally.

[REDACTED] said the reasons she suggested [REDACTED] are as follows:

He has his own plane; He is a parachutist and left the area just prior to the hijacking and returned shortly after.

On 1/6/72 a letter was received from [REDACTED] [REDACTED] WHICH MUST BERETURNED as well as additional information about him.
