[REDACTED b6, b7C, b7D], and the Suffolk Airport, Suffolk, Virginia, viewed the artist's conception regarding captioned matter and advised that the artist's conception of DAN COOPER without the glasses appears to be very similar to an individual known to [REDACTED] as HARDEN (phonetic), aka "SARGE" who operates the Tri-County Airport located between Ahoskie and Orlando, North Carolina.

[REDACTED] advised that HARDEN is a former member of the U.S. Air Force and is believed by [REDACTED] to be a former helicopter pilot. [REDACTED] advised that HARDEN, who he has known for approximately 5 years, has purchased a farm and at least two aircrafts during that 5 year period.

[REDACTED b6, b7C, b7D] advised that HARDEN has been in the Suffolk- Norfolk area as a flight instructor off and on but that he has not been associated with any particular flying school in the Norfolk, Virginia, area. [REDACTED] advised that he has never heard of a flying school referred to by the Baton Rouge, Louisiana, source as Corona Flyers or Flying Corporation.
