Re: UNIDENTIFIED WITNESS FURNISHED INFORMATION REGARDING CENTURY SKYDIVING TEAM

---

On 12/31/71 an unidentified white male telephonically contacted SA[REDACTED] at the Portland FBI Office and desired to know if the FBI is still looking for COOPER, hi- jacker of the Northwest Airlines aircraft. The caller stated the FBI should attempt to contact [REDACTED] [REDACTED] of the "Century Skydiving Team," which at one time operated at theScholes Airport, Vancouver, Wash- ington. The caller indicated these individuals would have information concerning a person who performed with this team. The caller stated the above persons could furnish the descrip- tion of the hijacker and they would know the identity of the hijacker.

---

This individual was asked how he knew this and he stated he knew and once the unknown subject had been identi- fied and apprehended his revenge would be complete. He indi- cated he knew the identity of the person who could be responsible for the hijacking.

---

The caller was very incoherent during most of the conversation and stated at the conclusion of the call, "When you get the hijacker, tell him it was[REDACTED] who turned him in to the FBI." The caller then laughed and hung up.
