  1. I agree, we do not know what check boxes are correct. So what else can pair candidates with the high-jacker? Mannerisms of Cooper during the event? Attitudes and behaviors of the crew and main players as events unfold? I see changes in the behavior and narrative within the first 48 hours; also the 1980 Tena Bar money find.
  2. According to the three books I have read on Reca, he DIDN'T want this following him around. His best friend took years to coax even parts of the story out of him. Isn't the ability to withhold information a requirement for the first list of jobs - those things you say he didn't do? I am puzzled how your first paragraph seems to contradict your second? Wouldn't that background and robbery training make him a good candidate for the occupations you list?
  3. It's amazing Florence would trump Tina on the sketch matter regardless of her looking directly at him, or not. I estimate Tina had almost 15 times the conatct time with the hijacker (Florence 20 mins? / Tina 290 mins?). I still question why the Initial Sketch wouldn't be circulated like every version after.
  4. I know you have been able to insert names into the released documents. Any chance you can figure the witness that gave this info about broader face and nose? This from FBI document 11.
  5. Yes sir. I have pondered that quite a bit. Even dug around in the FBI releases searching for some answer.
  6. What about the Initial Sketch? Nobody has compared that first version next to Reca. Doesn’t seem as far-fetched as you are letting on.
  7. I have to wonder why they chose Cle Elum for their witness location. Upon reviewing their story and the witness interview, it seems like they had many of the commonly accepted hijacking details down. Why would they miss this “major” one?
  8. Your modified version of ARINC transcript does look nice and neat. Although, I think two entries at 8:01 and 8:02 pm on the original disappeared between your 7:57 and 8:03 entries.
  9. I may be another of the one-time posters that will fade away after taking a verbal assault, but I am willing to do so if this comment helps the mainstays think outside a very particular box or industry regarding the tie. Has anyone looked at the yellow pages from that era to see if another business may be plausible for creating the tie residues? You may be surprised at how many metal fabrication shops were using these ‘rare’ elements in their processes and production.
