[REDACTED], Northwest Orient Airlines, was interviewed by SA [REDACTED] and SA [REDACTED] and furnished the following information.
At approximately 2:00 p.m., November 24, 1971, a white male came up to him in regular rotation in a long line of customers and said something to the effect, "Can I get on your flight to Seattle?" [REDACTED] noticed no nervousness or fidgeting. [REDACTED] asked if he wanted one way coach and he said "Yes." The white male paid with a $20 bill, probably using his right hand in paying for the fare. The source of money from his pockets was not noted. When asked his name the white male said "COOPER, DAN COOPER". When asked if he had baggage, he said "No." It was not noticed whether or not he was carrying anything. After receiving instructions to flight area, the white male departed from the ticket counter area, his direction was unnoticed. [REDACTED] said he has never seen the male since.
