[REDACTED] said she and [REDACTED] last saw [REDACTED] b6 during the last Christmas Holidays when they visited [REDACTED] b7C in Oregon. At that time, she said, they kidded him about being a good suspect in the instant hijacking; however, they did not at any time actually think he is a person who would do such a thing. She studied the composite sketch of the subject and said although there are some similarities, she does not actually think the sketch is a good likeness of [REDACTED]. She said [REDACTED] enjoys an excellent reputation, and their exper- ience with him has indicated him to be honest and trustworthy, but she admitted that with his flying and parachuting background he would have been about as capable of performing the instant hijacking as anyone she has heard of. She said [REDACTED] [REDACTED] area and the subject [REDACTED]
