SPECIAL NOTICE FROM THE FBI

RE: HIJACKING OF NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES PLANE ON NOVEMBER 24, 1971, BETWEEN PORTLAND, OREGON AND SEATTLE WASHINGTON

The hijacker extorted $200,000 from Northwest Orient Airlines at the time he hijacked the aircraft and all the money was paid in $20 Federal Reserve Notes. Serial numbers of the currency have been recorded.

There is a good possibility the hijacker deposited part of the money to a bank account or paid off a debt in $20 denominations.

Co-operation of all banks is urgently needed, and it is requested the FBI be immediately notified in the event large deposits of twenties are received or large payoffs are made in twenties.

A list of the serial numbers has been distributed to many banks in the State of Oregon, but if your bank does not have a copy, please contact the FBI, telephone 224-4181, Portland Office, to check out any questionable bills.
