On 7/27/72, HENRY CONRAD was interviewed at his residence, 12851 Garden Grove Boulevard, Garden Grove, California. CONRAD advised he recalls being with WILLARD C. TWIGG at the Americana Apartments in Santa Monica, California, on 11/24/71. CONRAD specifically recalled having invited TWIGG to have Thanksgiving dinner with them on the following day at his, [REDACTED] home in Lakewood, California. He recalled TWIGG had declined the invitation stating he was flying out of town. He stated TWIGG had stated he was flying either to Phoenix, Arizona, or to Costa Rica and would be out of town on 11/25/71.
CONRAD advised he quite possibly drove TWIGG to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), on the morning of 11/25/71; however, he does not positively recall that he had done so. He explained that he has often driven TWIGG to LAX on his business trips out of Los Angeles and he, in all liklihood, did so on 11/25/71, but could not state this positively.
CONRAD continued stating he has observed the artist's conception of the hijacker in both "Look" magazine and "Stag" magazine and in his opinion the drawing definitely does not resemble TWIGG. He added he considers himself a very close friend of TWIGG and has never known him to ever have parachuted or even considered parachuting at any time. He said TWIGG's entire disposition would make him, CONRAD, extremely doubtful as to whether TWIGG would be capable of such a crime as he is a very nervous person even as a passenger on a plane and is not at all atheletically inclined.
CONRAD stated that he, as a pilot, would be the last to condone any type of hijacking and if he had any knowledge or suspicion that anyone, including TWIGG, was involved in such a matter he would readily cooperate with the FBI.
CONRAD also advised that one of the two men involved in the plastics manufacturing business in Costa Rica with TWIGG is reportedly a former Special Agent of the FBI. He stated the names of TWIGG's business associates in Costa Rica are [REDACTED] and (first name unrecalled) [REDACTED]
