Dear [REDACTED]

I received the enclosed letter from [REDACTED] today regarding the "D. B. Cooper" incident which I forward to you for your information and disposition.

As you know, we collected from our insurers for loss of the ransom. The insurers may be willing to pay some kind of reward for information leading to the recovery of the money.

While Northwest is interested in having "D. B. Cooper" apprehended, we do not want unnecessary publicity regarding the incident.
