Dear Sir,
I am writing this letter in regards to the
plane Hi jacking of Nov. 24th over Washington
State.
The man described as being the Hi jacker
fits [REDACTED] perfectly.
Perhaps its just a coincidence but I have been
un-easy about it ever since I read about it. I have
tried several times to get in touch with the State
College Pa. Office. But no one answers the phone there.
[REDACTED] is now living in Reno Nevada since March
71. He is an ex paratrooper with 99 jumps to his credit.
He has used both type parachutes, with static line and
free fall type. He has flown many times in all types of
planes. Including jets and is very familar with pro-
cedures. He is 43 yrs. old, 5'11" tall dark brown hair
usually worn short. Brown eyes, prominent nose and has
a very nervous twitch in his chin when under pressure.
He carries a brown brief case when traveling.
I do not wish to cause him trouble unnecessarily
but I am concerned about [REDACTED]
[REDACTED] once a week. This has really bothered me since the
Hi jacking and so many of my relatives have called me
and expressed their amazement as to how much this
sounded like Dave. Perhaps I am being silly but I
honestly believe that there will be no harm done if he
is not the man. I sincerely hope not.
