NORJAK. DAILY SUMMARY
PARACHUTE FOUND AT PORTLAND WAS RECEIVED AT SEATTLE
JANUARY SIX, NINETEEN SEVENTY-TWO AND EXAMINED BY EARL COSSEY,
WHO PACKED ALL THE CHUTES GIVEN TO THE HIJACKER AND COSSEY
DEFINITELY ELIMINATED THIS PARACHUTE AS ONE GIVEN TO THE
HIJACKER.
EXPERIMENTAL FLIGHT WAS MADE TODAY USING THE SAME
NORTHWEST AIRLINES AIRCRAFT AS HIJACKED, DURING WHICH TWO
SLEDS, MADE TO SOMEWHAT APPROXIMATE THE SIZE OF A MAN AND
[guess: twenty four]
WEIGHING APPROXIMATELY TWO HUNDRED/LBS., WERE DROPPED OVER
PACIFICOCEAN. THE EFFECT OF THESE DUMMIES DEFINITELY
RECORDED A CABIN PRESSURE CHANGE AND, ACCORDING TO [REDACTED]
OF THE HIJACKED AIR-
CRAFT, THE REACTION TODAY WAS IDENTICAL TO THAT WHICH
OCCURRED DURING THE HIJACKING.
