Sir:

I have to assume you received my letter a month ago concerning my suspicion of sky jacking of N.W. plane.

After seeing composite drawing on T.V. two nights ago am more positive than ever I could be right.

I assumed you would check [REDACTED] to see if [REDACTED] was there and if not there the F.B.I would run a check.

Having gave you info. on old case F.B.I don't credit after so many years I have to consider possibility you have me down as a crank so would discount what would seem another wild story.

All I'm looking for is transfer to my home state where I can have visits and a plus or two when I go before the board in less than four years at age 65.

Just happens I have been in a position to learn many things. See my life coming to an end, & want to be on the right side for a change.

Could be I'm wrong about this plane thing, but if so is really an amazing coincidence.

If you study my record and [REDACTED] record it would look like I'm [REDACTED]
