Well, why not memorialize it here, Ryan, Chris and John mentioned on the recent podcast that the latest FBI vault drop (part 97) contains a letter from Gunther to the FBI telling them about the contact he had from someone claiming to be the hijacker or know hijacker (Clara). The implication here is that Gunther wouldn't falsely mislead the FBI, which would be a crime, if he wasn't truly contacted by someone. So the take away is that this letter from Gunther to the FBI suggests that someone really did reach out to Gunther and that part of the story was not made up.

They are doing an incredible job and have a good message. Fox News has her rally on their website live, but not Donald that I could see. She’s started talking crowd sizes, but in a totally different tone to Donald - and that has to be designed to drive Donald nuts. She called out and thanked some republicans. They are separating Donald and Vance, and directly calling them out, but not bringing in MAGA or deplorables into the target. Donald and MAGA are beyond saving and will band together, but they are opening space for true republicans to find some backbone and splinter off. Not only is Harris campaign being respectful, but it’s also strategic as it splinters the opposition and creates division. Even the likes of Joe Rogan are starting distance themselves - admittedly leaning towards Kennedy.

I second that!

The peculiar thing is that Gunther never mentions the letters he received years earlier from someone claiming to actually BE DB Cooper. My question is why? Wouldn't that be pertinent information to share with the FBI?

@billeisele, remember this? Turned out you didn't own nor actually run the $21.5 million business. Does this make what you did "stolen financial valor"?

Thanks. I would love to but health issues make it unlikely. I want the focus to be on you guys who are the future of the Cooper case. The more I can support you, the better for everyone. I even wish Flyjack would come back! Dont forget for one second, it was Flyjack who stubbornly opened up accessibility to the FBI 302's - all billions of them. That effort alone opened the case up for millions of people to review and think about .... which is partly responsible for why we are where we are today. There are things I am still researching in the case which I will get to and want to post about. I am more than happy to watch Tom and you guys going forth. Let's see what the future holds .... the vortex has come a very long way in just two weeks! A year from today we will all know more than we know today. We have frankly come a very long way suddenly. Wow and Congrats!

I'm thinking it's not too soon for caps that say: "Make America Walz Again!"

Even fox coming out against the nonsense “Tim Walz served his country honorably for 24 years. JD Vance, Trump need to respect that. He earned it | Fox News” Fox News Defends Walz

Would you be nice to have you come on out, G. I'll buy you a beer!

And let me see if I've got this right - he told the story about a helicopter accident to show how well he knows Willie Brown, Kamala's old mentor... but not only was there no incident, he was actually on the helicopter with Jerry Brown?

Yep. And from an administration that already has had problems stemming from their dislike of veterans, Gold Star families, POWs and wounded warriors - this could backfire rather badly.

NEWS: CooperCon will occur in 2024 under new management with some truly great people! - at the Museum of Flight in Seattle as originally planned. It speaks for itself! This is huge welcome news! The announcement : Thank you Chris and Ryan! (Thanks guys! )

Nobody who still uses the term 'woke' should expect to be taken seriously.

And once again I must ask: How would we detect a difference?

Hi folks, As I continue to say: Trump is his own worst enemy. At his press conference today, here is one take: But the attacks got rather lost in his grievance about crowd sizes and how they are reported, even suggesting that there may be something unconstitutional about Harris’s campaign. And this, which is what is driving him nuts: And, then it was over. And, as if to prove a point, within minutes of Trump walking off stage, the fickle cable news cameras had shifted their lenses from Florida to Michigan where Harris and Walz were holding a meeting with union workers. It was the Democrats time for some press coverage. Once again. Katty Kay: Trump fights for spotlight as Democrats dominate coverage (bbc.com) His ego will not let her have the spotlight; which Kamala & Tim have been dominating. I fully expect him to come unglued in the days ahead. Stay tuned, film at 11. Jerry Baumchen

He was under recognized for his contributions to the sport. Terry Crowe story: I worked at Para-Flite & Terry worked at SSE repairing Sentinels and altimeters we shared the same space. I was on student status and the next weekend I was doing my first 10 second delay we got permission for Terry to train me on cutaways during the week so I could jump a StratoStar Ropes and rings, this is shortly after the Strato Star came out, at every chance he drilled me. So jump 11 was my first square jump . It was a BIG Deal back then! I thank him for taking the time to do that ! He didn't have to. I think I was one of the first to jump a square on student status back in I think 1974.
