Probably. But someone smart enough to figure our the logistics of where to fly and at what speed & altitude might have been smart enough to figure out where to land with a parachute (numerous theories to the level of parachutist Cooper may have been).

But, yeah, not a hero.

The tie could have easily been bought at a second-hand store. Way too many years have passed for anyone to remember the giver/buyer for such a common item.

I watch this subject I guess on YouTube several months ago and it made perfect sense to me. But a lot of people think it’s hogwash, I think it makes perfect sense.

My understanding is that, by demanding multiple chutes, he ensured that they couldn't be certain that he wasn't going to take hostages. So they (probably) wouldn't have sabotaged them. I was impressed when I learned that - smart move!

He jumped into an extreme thunderstorm, not a clear night as in the movie, falling blind.

Then the package with money was found. Interesting note, the dad of the kid who found the money was wanted for a felony in Oklahoma.

10 to 1, Cooper’s bones have been reprocessed into fertilizer by wild beasts in the area.

"he called himself Dan Cooper, but the media misreported the name as D.B. Cooper"

The media have never worried too much about details.

Now that Eric has solved the DB Cooper case, he has some time on his hands to look into that JFK case in a Dallas.
