Quotewell anyway you look at it the chute is missing, tossing it was only a thought, the area in which it would of landed is much larger than the chute itself and could easily be hanging in the trees all this time? I don't know, given the size and color of it VS the terrain one would tend to believe it would be hard to spot unless you tripped over it.
to date nobody has any proof what so ever how he went out of the back of the plane, I am currently working on a project in hopes of finding some answers to this, I don't know at this stage, I don't know if anything will be found, but I will be able to tell you if the flight path is correct.
one of the best tools is recreation, I'm going back to the scene of the crime so to speak and see what can be uncovered, corrected or confirmed for that matter!
If the FBI vacuum cleaners that cleaned the plane in Reno were any good at all, they would contain the string that was used by TOG to sew the X chute closed. Weber would have cut the string with his pocket knife like he was told to do, and used that chute on his back. The string would probably be in short pieces. I heard the instructions as they were given to Weber. The X chute was put in his storage compartment in 1968, sewn shut to insure no tampering by uninformed SA's during retrieval. I'll be happy to certify this for you, along with each and every segment of the Norjak Project.
P.S.: An experienced jumper is a joke in trying to assist in analyzing this incident, since NOTHING is standard procedure. EVERYTHING is dyslexic... backwards. Having flatulence between the ears is not the same as having dyslexia. Analyzing planted evidence and misinformation is not dyslexic either, but it is backwards, which is not the same as smart, which rhymes with fart, which we already discussed. It's a professional circle jerk here. Not my sort of game, but you are funny to watch.

Jo your facts are false, or maybe you misunderstood.
So now Duane is a CIA Operative stealing planes for the CIA?
Jo Replies:
NOW did I SAY Duane was a CIA Operative stealing planes for the CIA? NO! I said Cooper not Duane.
You are the one changing directions or misunderstanding.
Go back and read the post. I was relaying a conversation with a man in 2006, who was questioned shortly after Cooper did his thing. A few yrs before the skyjacking this man claimed he and Cooper were employed by the CIA (by the way this man's connection are very well known). They were stealing planes in Mexico and taking them to an operation in S.America. I was told digging into this matter was NOT a WISE thing to do.
Your source of information regarding the history of Smoke Jumping and the 555 and the formation of the Nickels is not the only source available.
But you have maintained all along that Duane was Cooper, so which is it now?
He wasn't?

Smokejumping was first proposed in 1934 by T.V. Pearson, the Forest Service Intermountain Regional Forester, as a means to quickly provide initial attack on forest fires. By parachuting in, self-sufficient firefighters could arrive fresh and ready for the strenuous work of fighting fires in rugged terrain. The smokejumper program began in 1939 as an experiment in the Pacific Northwest Region, and the first fire jump was made in 1940 on Idaho's Nez Perce National Forest in the Northern Region. In 1981, the first woman smokejumper in the nation successfully completed the training program at the McCall Smokejumper Base in Idaho.
Site two Forrest Service
The Forest Service began with experimental trials here in the fall of 1939. These early jumps proved that firefighters could safely parachute into the rugged timbered mountains to suppress wildfires, minimizing suppression cost and the loss of timber resources. Today the Department of Agriculture-Forest Service and the Department of the Interior-Bureau of Land Management have almost 400 smokejumpers at nine primary locations in the western United States and Alaska. The North Cascades Smokejumper Base provides initial fire attack for the forests of central and northern Washington State.
555
Activation
The unit was activated as a result of a recommendation made in December 1942 by the Advisory Committee on Negro Troop Policies, chaired by the Assistant Secretary of War, John J. McCloy. In approving the committee's recommendation for a black parachute battalion, Chief of Staff General George C. Marshall decided to start with a company, and on 25 February 1943 the 555th Parachute Infantry Company was constituted.
On 19 December 1943, Headquarters, Army Ground Forces, authorized the activation of the company as an all-black unit with black officers as well as black enlisted men. All unit members were to be volunteers, with an enlisted cadre to be selected from personnel of the 92d Infantry Division at Fort Huachuca, Arizona.
The company was officially activated on 30 December 1943 at Fort Benning, Georgia. After several months of training, the unit moved to Camp Mackall, North Carolina, where it was reorganized and redesignated on 25 November 1944 as Company A of the newly-activated 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion
She and BK will all claim you made this up, since it came from a "computer" and not sworn to by one of them.

QuoteLord have mercy, is it just me or has this forum gone to hell in a hand basket? I used to love coming on here and joining in the discourse. Folks keeping an open mind and, yes, agreeing to disagree - though sometimes being asinine and having to take a Quade-cation.
But overall, most of us have enjoyed the interesting dialogue on a variety of subjects -- from parachuting to weather to facial patterns to tie clips to flight paths to jets to psychological makeup of hijackers and victims to cords and money finds and transcripts and outcome scenarios and "my DB is better than your DB and here's why"........I could go on and on about the myriad paths discussions have taken....... but I won't waste anymore of your time....thoughtful readers get my drift.
I don't even read most of the posts anymore - it's all such bickering bullshit. What happened? Will we ever get our forum back?
Never mind...just venting..No response needed to a rhetorical question.
Sigh......it is what it is but hope springs eternal.
Probably not, if you eliminate the none-science and all the fantasy, very few of use would even have a post still here.
But if we can stick to the proven history, facts of science and real evidence, we have a neat thread, maybe only 200~ posts in it then.

QuoteDo us all a favor and stay gone like you have been...
NO! NO! NO!, Bob, please don't leave. Your crazy story gives balance to all the other crazy stories. You are entertaining; the responses you evoke are more entertaining.
You rub everyone the wrong way...that's a good thing. Question authority at every opportunity.
Personally, I think you should sit down some evening and compose a time-line for what you are claiming. Names of places, people and events. From the beginning. One post, inclusive of your entire argument with as much detail as possible. Explain why you can't divulge certain names. Exactly why for each name. After you write it...do it off line and upload later...sleep on it and revise in the morning. Don't just send it off. Plan.
Give it a try. You'll piss off hundreds of people, maybe a few thousand, with just one post.
I'll keep checking every few days. Give it your best shot.

'What did Cooper say to Oswald' - for 300 Bob!
~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~

The order came down from the Vice President to the Pentagon then thru the CIA in which they called up the NRA and established contact with Richard Floyd McCoy who at the time was a deputy Sheriff in a small Mexican town (we will discuss this at a later time) McCoy contacted Cooper who then contacted Oswald in a cafe in Texas.
Cooper then told Oswald that the target must be taken out in order to secure security around the President, he instructed Oswald to go to the 6th floor, BUT do not fire, I repeat do not fire, others will handle the target.
this is all based on my knowledge and has been signed by the highest traffic court judge in Florida as to being truthful as one can be!
once you understand this part, I will grant you security to the 2nd level!

WRONG INFORMATION AGAIN.
I SPOKE WITH LLOYD WHO IS VERY SOUND OF MIND. SEE U CANNOT EVEN GET THAT STRAIGHT SO HOW ARE YOU GOING TO GET ANYTHING ELSE STRAIGHT.
NOW U SAY 1944 AND THAT IS CORRECTED, BUT WHEN THEY GOT TO WA. THEY DID NOT HAVE THE EXPERIENCE JUMPING IN THE HEAVY FOREST AND WITH THE SPECIALIZE EQUIPMENT - THEY GOT SOME VERY QUICK LESSONS FROM DERRY IN WA.
THE 555 WAS NOT SMOKE JUMPERS IN 1945. JUST MILITARY JUMPERS. JUMPERS WHO FELT THEY WERE BEING SENT TO WA -TO DO THE WHITE MANS DIRTY WORK TO HELP FIGHT FIRES. THEY WERE UNAWARE OF THE BALLOON BOMBS...AS THIS WAS KEPT UNDER WRAPS UNTIL THEY ARRIVED IN WA. WHEN THEY GOT THERE - THEY MADE HISTORY. IT WOULD BE 1945 BEFORE THEY BECAME THE NICKELS.

Jo, Just exactly what is there in your background that makes you feel qualified to lecture Matt on military parachuting, sports parachuting, or even the time of day?
Don't be modest. Just give a short list of your accomplishments in the parachuting area. Matt would probably appreciate seeing your list of accomplishments also.
Also, what is the source of your statements about the balloon bombs? The balloon bombs were common knowledge for WA residents in that period. I lived there then and saw one of those balloons.
Are you asking me to believe you rather than my own eyes?
Robert99
Yup!
