This airtel summarizes information contained in 164A-SE-81, (formerly 164A-36) entitled "RICHARD FLOYD MCCOY, JR., aka; CAA-AIR PIRACY; EFP; OO:SU, which relates to RICHARD FLOYD MCCOY, JR. and which does not appear to be attached to a communication indicating that the information was forwarded to Seattle Division. The following is a summary of such information:

1. Serial 18 - Interview of ROBERT VAN IEPEREN. VAN IEPEREN stated that MCCOY was a skydiver, a Vietnam Veteran, and a helicopter pilot. MCCOY told VAN IEPEREN how it would be possible to hijack an airplane and that if he were going to do it, he would ask for $500,000. MCCOY's sister told VAN IEPEREN that MCCOY tried to get her to help him with the hijacking. [REDACTED] expressed concern to VAN IEPEREN on 4/7/92 that MCCOY might be involved in a hijacking. MCCOY told VAN IEPEREN that if the plane he hijacked was followed by chase planes, he would tell them that he planted a bomb on a second plane in order to get them to withdraw. MCCOY told VAN IEPEREN that if he was successful in obtaining $500,000, he would leave the country.
