Crazy story,, could be a movie, I suspect he forged his credentials and wasn't a legit Dr.. he even has a patent.. not Cooper though. Amazing find about the 727 air drop in the newspaper,, it was even more amazing about 6 years ago when I posted it on Shutter's site, it was discussed with muted enthusiasm, if I recall I also posted details about the 727M prototype designed for air drops in the 60's and also an article in an aviation publication stating that the 727 airstairs were successfully lowered inflight during initial testing 63/64.. Maybe you guys can find those in the next 6 years. Tom has thrown cold water on the TiSb particles but Olemiss still misrepresents the TiSb patent.. The patent is for a production process not TiSb in 18%.. Although TiSb is mentioned in a ratio range it is not exclusive to the patent and there is no evidence it was ever even produced in the same ratio as the tie particles.. That patent is entirely irrelevant to the tie particles... Vordahl has no connection to Norjak. The person who contacted Gunther was in NY... not Dayton. But I agree Cooper has some aviation experience.. some military... that narrows it down to maybe 50,000 guys..

"Moreover, Dunbar and Ulis are asking the FBI to grant Ulis and a DNA specialist access..." Eric HAS to be in the room when it happens. I told him this was an issue like a year ago. Instead of FOIA'ing it or doing this publicity campaign type stuff, I told him he needed to line up a DNA specialist and have THEM contact the FBI through back channels and request access. From my perspective, that was the only chance the idea ever had for success. Eric needed to divorce himself from it and only have a role in the background. I believe Eric has good intentions with all of this, but from the FBI's perspective, he's just some guy who has been on TV a few times and is out making statements to the media. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since we know that Tina didn't turn the lights out until Cooper sent her to the cockpit, I'm guessing that his statement is due to the window shades in the rear being closed. I've tried to determine when that photo was taken and I suspect it was pretty early on. The passengers may even still be on board. Tina says she didn't close the window shades until right after she brought the first parachute on. That would have been shortly after the passengers got off. In the photo, you can see Al Lee standing by the passenger door of the Dart. The passengers had not yet been moved far from the aircraft when Tina was getting the parachutes because we know that several of the passengers saw the chutes. In the full photo the trunk is just out of frame, so we can't say for certain if it's open or not in the photo. I'm not sure about the money bag's location in the Dart, but I'm quite certain that the chutes were all placed in the trunk. My intuition would be that the money bag would have been up front with Lee and not in the trunk. No doubt he didn't let that thing out of his clutches until he handed it over. So with Al Lee standing next to the passenger door, I'm imagining this photo may be right before she got the money or right after she took it on board. All speculation of course, regarding the precise moment that photo was taken, but I think it's safe to say that it's somewhere around the 6 pm range. Passengers are either still on board or are just out of frame to the left. Lee did tell them to go stand behind the Dart around 6 or so, after the passenger tried to go back on board. My best guess is that this is while the passengers are still on board. It'd have been a much more dramatic photo if the passengers were in the shot and were standing right behind the Dart. So this is right before or right after Tina gets the money IMO. Do you disagree with that assessment? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's true, but absent Tina making comments about Cooper asking her to dim the lights, I think we have to assume that the fuel truck guy was simply seeing the effect of those shades being pulled. Cooper certainly needed the lights given what he was up to back there with the chutes and the bag, especially wearing sunglasses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Al Lee... lights out AFT section.. 4 min after take-off lights were out in rear.. it doesn't actually say Tina turned them off then... just that they were off..... and how well did Tina see him in the dark then? It isn't clear about the sequence or timing of the lights but Cooper was in the rear with Sunglasses and no lights and he had to lower the stairs and go down them to jump.. Did he remove his sunglasses?? I always wondered if he had a flashlight or used one of the plane's flashlights..

Find a slo mo of matches lighting - its an 'explosive event' - blows particles everywhere in the space around the match lighting. If you strike a match in front of the tie or anywhere in the vicinity of the tie, the tie gets covered by every particle related to the match chemistry. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did he remove his sunglasses?? I always wondered if he had a flashlight or used one of the plane's flashlights.. I can't think of any reason for him to have kept the sunglasses on once she went to the front. Seems to me like he wanted the lights off mainly so his eyes could adjust to the darkness. Perhaps he may have also been somewhat concerned of the possibility that if the lights were on that a chase plane could spot him on the stairs. Also, I'd be interested to know just how dark it actually was when the lights were turned off. Did they have some sort of ever-present ambient lighting that would always remain on unless the plane was actually turned off? Like how you see on modern planes they have lights along the floor of the aisles that always stay on. The only copycat that I'm aware of who had a flashlight was McCoy. I asked Mac about it a while back, and he said he didn't want a flashlight because he might have been too tempted to use it once he got to the ground and that could have given his position away.

Good points,, but at 4 min after takeoff Tina turns and sees Cooper standing with the lights out,, How well could she Cooper in the dark and would he have still had his sunglasses on? She did say she never saw his face straight on and never without his glasses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
