On 10/19/72 [REDACTED] Washington, telephone [REDACTED] telephonically contacted the Longview RA and advised that he lives just north of the [REDACTED] He advised that to get to his residence [REDACTED]

[REDACTED TABLE/FORM BLOCK]

He pointed out that the night of the hijacking he was watching television and heard an announcement concerning the hijacking. Almost as soon as he heard the announcement a large plane flew low overhead and flew slightly to the east of his house over [REDACTED] area. He pointed out the area into which the plane flew was one which is extremely heavily wooded and an area into which one would have difficulty going on foot.

He advised that he has been thinking of calling the FBI on this matter but has kept putting it off and feels that the flight of the plane that night would indicate that the area searched to date has not included [REDACTED] area and the route over which the plane flew. He pointed out that he lives directly under the north- south flyway for the airlines and this is the only time that he and [REDACTED] have ever heard a plane flying over that low. He requested an agent contacting him personally in order that the flight of the plane could be accurately described.

Contact with [REDACTED] will be made 10/20/72.

One copy of this memorandum furnished to SA [REDACTED] at Longview RA for handling on 10/20/72.
