Sluggo_Monster 0 #16677 February 27, 2010 Based on her response.... it's worse than I thought. She has lost all touch with reasonable thought. PS: Did you know the FBI lied to her?

georger 244 #16678 February 27, 2010 QuoteBased on her response.... it's worse than I thought. She has lost all touch with reasonable thought. Here/s a novel thought - Is 'Jo Weber' an example of the kind of effect Cooper hoped to have? Were his aims as much political as financial? - Is 'Jo Weber' a piece of evidence in this case? She is if Cooper intended this effect! - Beside his physical evidence there are only two pieces of other evidence in this case. The rear door placard torn off when Cooper opened the door. And money at Tina Bar. Two actual events caused two pieces of evidence to be left. If we take this at face value and assume everything Cooper did left actual evidence, then not only are misanthropes like Jo Weber evidence, but the lack of other hard evidence "is evidence" - a direct association! The facts of the case have produced exactly the evidence found. That means Cooper lost the money but probably got away. He probably lost the money somewhere near the upper Washougal tributary system but placed escape above locating his lost money pouch. The placard was found almost directly under the flight path and the money came from exactly where it landed then arrived at Tina's Bar via the flood of 1977. * Hydrologist Bradley speculated that had to be within ten feet of one major tributary in the Wasgougal drainage basin. The Jo Weber Effect is collateral evidence of Cooper's hijacking and escape fueling public misanthropic imaginations! The other hard evidence is thus complete with nothing else to find (in Washington) and consistent with the facts. The missing link in this case is "the facts and evidence are complete and consistent". There is no other evidence to find (in the State of Washington) but the fact this is not apparent has lead to the notion of missing evidence! The socalled missing facts and missing evidence have been a phantom, just like Jo Weber. This case is complete - we just didnt see it! Case complete.

skyjack71 0 #16680 February 28, 2010 Quotegeorger -- She may have a justifiable dislike of many people, but I doubt she hates all mankind. I have only the following words to say: I did not say Sluggo was FBI and I definitely feel no malice toward anyone other than Jerry Thomas. If Jerry's conversation with me had been recorded - not one of you would approve of any individual being treated that way - it was inhumane....it was torturous and mean. There is not much more I can say, but truely hope each one of you will feel some remorse when all of this comes to light. Upon reciting some of what I have told to the FBI and items I described in detail to them and to others - things the FBI seemed to have NO interest in - I was asked this Question. Did you tell all of this to the FBI? This has been a very difficult 14 yrs and I would not wish them upon any living human being. The truth will prevail and the truth will be told. Not once did I falter in my belief and not once did I ever doubt what I saw and what I was told. The only part of this I question is WHY the FBI continued to probagate lies and deception - and/or are our investigative forces that inept? Didn't they ever look back at the orginal files or did they loose (or misplace) them as they supposedly did the cigarette butts. May 24, 1996 was my first contact with the FBI and May 24, 2010 is the 14 th anniversary of this plight.Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precisely - in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, you have never faltered in your belief, so you have to resort to some way over the top conspiracy theory (anyone look back and see the hundred different angles of this. ranging from MLK to freemasons to smokejumpers) to justify it.

nigel99 476 #16682 February 28, 2010 Quote Quote The truth currently can not be established because there simply aren't enough relevant facts. Oh, there are hundreds of pages of facts that have been uncovered by some of the internet sleuths, but almost none of them actually mean anything and absolutely none of them actually put anyone in the airplane. Do that, and somebody would actually have something, but nobody has. Until that point, almost all of the ramblings here are merely time wasters. Have the passengers (media and investigators) got their seat belts fastened and have the jumpers (who commit themselves to this discussion) secured their equipment? Remember that a lot of what has been revealed in this forum HAS NEVER reached the PUBLIC nor have any of the "survivors" of that plane been given the opportunity to review not only Weber, but these other subjects...... Outside of interivews conducted by journalist not ONE FBI agent has presented any information regarding Weber or other suspects to any "survivor" from Nov. 24, 1971. Only with Weber have there been items introduced that might put him on that plane...and these item have NOT been revealed or shown to the crew. Conversations conducted today are the precursors for this presentation to take place.....SO we will all have some answers in the very near future. In the mean time I intend to go thru with my little exercise in WA and hope it will be productive (I had a slight delay due to malfunctioning equipment). Alternate (but expensive means) are now being utilized to facilitate this happening. By the end of April the results of this exercise should be available if NOT public by then. NEWSFLASH JO - This IS a PUBLIC forum! So if it has been revealed here it is has been revealed in public!Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

She may have a justifiable dislike of many people, but I doubt she hates all mankind. I know what the word means. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe all it is is Jo has acquired a new larger monitor somebody installed for her, and with that change in her vista she now feels she and WE can control the State of Washington, and that could lead to controling the Universe. Jo never thinks small. Wake me when she divides fishes and loaves to feed the multitudes. Jo Weber/Duane Weber is a "symptom" in the Cooper case, not a primary ingredient.

SKYWHUFFO 1 #16684 February 28, 2010 ok after being stuck in Detroit airport for 2 days trying to get home, I was on a DC-9 coming home. I was looking at the card in the seat pocket(boredom) and it showed the rear emergency exit. Somthing i never thought about if it is an emergency exit, it has the Cooper Vain on it, does that mean the Cooper vain can be released internally in the event of an emergency? I was always under the assumption it had to be released EXTERNALLY. It that right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

377 22 #16687 March 1, 2010 The Cooper Vane rotates to a door blocking position with high speed airflow. When a plane is taxying or stationary, gravity rotates it and it does not block the ventral door/stairs from deploying outward. When I jumped the DC 9-21 at WFFC 2006 it had a working Cooper Vane but since the stairs were removed it served no blocking function even at flight speeds. Nothing extended outward to bloc k.

Flash ignition temp of nylon is ~750F. Average road flare burns at +1400F. Once the nylon is ignited its a self sustaining fire (highly flammabile) especially in the presence of other burning materials (wood etc). Easy way to dry and ignite wet wood etc... especially pine.

E=mc(2). When burned the bulk of the mass is converted to energy and heat, plus a few hydrocarbon ashes . Metal parts would be difficult to detect unless you were right on them. One interesting fact about the chute is that it was one of the most durable items in Cooper's repertoire more durable and conspicuous than either the placard, the money, or Cooper himself. And yet the chute is the one item not found. Cooper showed no concern over hiding evidence on the plane but he did show his ability to adapt and use resources available, so he probably used the chute for something vs. being concerned if it was found after he was gone. If he is dead then his concern ends and the matter is out of his hands. Maybe he opened a military surplus store with it and sold it along with a sign that read: DB Cooper's Parachute, and some buyer has it over his bar? 377 is right. Its somewhere. Either as atoms on the ground and in the air or buried or parted out in nature or maybe soon to show up on eBay. Maybe 377 can retrace it through e.s.p. ?

No point wasting time with pretend psychics right? If Cooper went in as a no pull, a packed chute isn't very visible in a green brushy environment. I still think vultures would have been circling the carcass eventually if it impacted on land. They are really good at finding decaying carcasses. Savvy Cooper hunters would have been looking for vulture groups circling. The fact that no body or rig remains have been found plus the Tena Bar find argue towards a water landing... or time travel, dimension hopping or transmutation. 3772018 marks half a century as a skydiver.
