“My Father Created D.B. Cooper”

A little more than 50 years ago D.B Cooper skyjacked a plane here in the Northwest, was given $200,000 in cash and four parachutes.  He told the crew to set a course for Mexico City, but before the plane landed for refueling he jumped from the back of the plane.  He has never been identified and only $5800 has been found.
