[REDACTED] stated he confronted LANGSETH with the information provided by [REDACTED] and LANGSETH indicated he had been exonerated by the FBI shortly after the incident and he was not, in fact, the individual who had hijacked that aircraft.

Interview of [REDACTED] San Jose, California, confirmed information provided by [REDACTED] and further indicated he was friends with LANGSETH for several years and that LANGSETH had made mention on several occasions that it was his desire to commit a perfect crime.

He stated that photographs of LANGSETH in 1971 at the time of the hijacking were very similar to COOPER, and he suspected strongly that LANGSETH was the individual known as D.P. COOPER.

He further advised that funds had been received by LANGSETH over a period of years from the Toronto Dominion Bank, Toronto, Canada, and when confronted, indicated that the funds were being provided by his in-laws, ARCHIE and GLADYS BRODIE, New Westminster, Vancouver, British Columbia.
