SA [REDACTED] called from Philadelphia today. He is the one doing the interviews with [REDACTED]. So far, all the pictures shown to her, including [REDACTED], have been non-idents. They are sending us a teletype but he wanted us to know that and he also wanted us to know that [REDACTED] wants to be thoroughly re-interviewed since she feels she can now recall things which she did not furnish previously. They are going to do this in the morning.

He said that she told him that the subject told her he wanted to take off with the ladder down, the gear down and "we'll be flying with 15 degrees." She said the pilot told her to tell him that they could not take off with the ladder down and he muttered, "Yes you can, but that's alright, we can lower it later."

[REDACTED] told us he thought this was significant since this would indicate the subject knew a lot about airplanes, perhaps that he might have worked on the 727 at one time. He also thought it was significant that "we'll be flying with 15 degrees" since this is pilot talk, meaning 15 degrees of flaps. I asked him if [REDACTED] mentioned whether or not the subject gave instructions as to the course to fly. He said that the subject did not, that he did not give any headings, he did not outline any course, but simply said to take him to Mexico.

---

They will be reinterviewing her tomorrow and furnish a teletype.
