Enclosed is a copy of the May 1972 Pacific Power &
Light bulletin's story concerning the FBI search for
parachuting skyjacker. This story is being enclosed for
information purposes only; however, the following quote from the
story is noteworthy:
"The man who boarded the plane in Portland as
'D. B. COOPER' literally vanished into the air that November
night and as this issue went to press nothing new had been
unearthed in the recent search.
"This fact, coupled with a popular theory that the
skyjacker ended up entangled in a tree in below-freezing
weather and never made it any farther, may make looking for
'D. B. COOPER' and the $200,000 ransom a recreational fad on
the Lewis River this summer."
