AI notes

Commentary by the AI model that transcribed this page. It may bring in context the page itself does not state. The scan is the source; the transcript is machine-generated from it.

Standard FBI transmittal form header (FD-36), date not legible. Page two continuation. Numbered items 4 through 8 describing the UNSUB (unknown subject): physical description (mid-40s, 5'10" to 6', 170-180 lbs), carried a small attache case, money bag weighed 19 pounds, ground winds approximately 30 miles southwest, believed to have jumped around 8:10 PM, ground wind 10-15 knots from the west. Heavily degraded paragraph describing parachute equipment furnished to the UNSUB. References back packs, navy pack, shroud lines, canopy, steering gores, and training parachute details. Most text is illegible due to poor copy quality. Standard FBI transmittal form footer with approval and sending lines. Contains case identifier DB Cooper-32074.

Bottom half of page is heavily degraded/noisy, making several lines very difficult to read
This is page two of a multi-page teletype/transmittal form
Date field is partially illegible
Microfiche or photocopy artifacts throughout
