THE CRIME
On November 24, 1971, a lone white male boarded Northwest Orient Flight #305 at Portland, Oregon. At approximately 3:22 P.M., while the flight was en route to Seattle, Washington, he indicated to the stewardess that his brief case contained a bomb which would blow up the plane unless his demands were met.
The hijacker demanded $200,000 and four parachutes in exchange for the safety of the 36 passengers aboard the plane. When the aircraft landed at Seattle, Washington, Northwest Orient Airlines complied with his instructions. After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
He then ordered the remaining crew members into the first-class section of the aircraft and informed them he desired to fly to Mexico City. The hijacker instructed that the plane proceed in a southerly direction and fly at a low altitude and slow speed which would enable the rear door of the plane (Boeing 727) to be opened during the flight.

The hijacker apparently bailed out somewhere between Seattle, Washington, and Reno, Nevada, where the plane landed to refuel. It was determined the hijacker, two parachutes, and the ransom money had disappeared when the plane was inspected at Reno, Nevada.
---
Artist conception drawings of the aircraft hijacker were prepared by the FBI Exhibit Section and are considered a reasonable likeness. The black and white composites were prepared initially and sometime later the color composites were prepared to depict the hijacker's complexion and age more graphically.

The hijacker is described as follows:
Race White Sex Male Age Mid 40's Height 5'10" to 6' Weight 170 to 180 lbs. Complexion Olive, Latin appearance, medium smooth Hair Dark brown or black, parted on the left combed back Eyes Possibly brown, during later part of flight the hijacker put on dark wrap-around sunglasses with dark rims Voice Low, spoke intelligently, no particular accent Characteristics Smoked Raleigh filters type cigarettes Wearing Apparel Black or brown suit; narrow black tie (clip on type); black rain type overcoat or dark top coat; dark briefcase or attache case; carried a paper bag - 4 x 12 x 14 inches; brown shoes Remarks Very polite at all times
