Enclosed to this memo is a copy of a story that appeared in the June issue of Mobster Times entitled, "Skyjacking: The Plane Story of D. B. Cooper." It is noted much of the infor- mation contained in the article is erroneous but two statements were of interest and there are quoted for information purposes as follows: "He had chosen a 727 because the 727 is the only kind of commercial jet from which it is safe to parachute." "He who steals a plane and $200,000 and leaps out into the night sky is a hero."
