RE: SEARCH AREA
---
A facsimile copy of a memo prepared by [REDACTED], b6 which was b7C accompanied by a map, which is also a facsimile, were re- ceived at 6:05 PM, 12/4/71, from Minneapolis.
The map shows the course of the aircraft from slightly north of the Kelso-Longview area to just south of Battle Ground and sets out the most likely area for the parachute drop according to [REDACTED] latest b6 calculations as an area described by paralel lines C, D E & F. b7C Generally speaking this would be an area between Pidgeon Springs and an area just north and east of Woodland.
The above information was furnished on 12/6/71 by ASAC BIBLER to SA MANNING at which time SA MANNING advised that he is sure that the area now described has already been searched by helicopter and fixed wing aircraft and that much of it has been covered on the ground as well.
It is noted that on 12/2/71, [REDACTED] advised b6 that after re-examining the flight recorder, he would suggest b7C that the search area could be extended to the north an additional three miles, and to as south as the Columbia River. That information was furnished to SA MANNING and possibly included the area now described in the map prepared by [REDACTED].
SA MANNING requested that to be sure that the area had been searched, that a copy of the map be forwarded sub. e to him for examination.
