[REDACTED], WXIA TV, 1611 West Peachtree Street, furnished the following information:

He made available an original letter which is typewritten and addressed to him, dated December 31, 1979, which is signed D. B. Cooper.

He also made available the envelope containing this letter and a 3 x 5 card which was enclosed with the letter and bearing the numbers "5346225496754."

He stated that he received this letter several weeks ago and felt upon reading the letter that the writer was not actually D. B. Cooper, a skyjacker, and he based this assumption on the fact that the writer stated the skyjacking occurred in 1969, which is erroneous. He stated that he was making this letter available in view of the recent publicity concerning D. B. Cooper.

Xerox copies of this letter and the envelope and 3 x 5 card are as follows:
