Yep… That would be me.
Shit! Now my cover is blown, what will I do? Who will disrupt this thread and keep everybody on the wrong track.
And… most of all… whose going to help me dig up all that money that I put in fresh graves in Cowlitz and Clark counties in 1971.
What a revoltin’ d’vel’pment dis turned out to be! *

Here's a nice site where they're tracking an Arctic wolf pack.
It's dark 24 hours, and they're wondering how they can hunt enough in the dark to stay alive.
They're tracking a couple of the wolves with gps collars
http://internationalwolfcenter.blogspot.com/
quite an amazing map of "Brutus" on the site.
Longest travel was 80 miles in 84 hours.
Cumulative distance from July 8 to November 30 is 1683 miles.
estimate 23-25 wolves in the pack (a couple of night photos at the site)
Don't shoot the wolves and eat their livers either!
"The collared wolf is wearing a GPS/ARGOS collar. Unlike the VHF radio collar, which is still widely used to locate animals and birds, the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) collar "listens" to the signal from a satellite and can calculate (by triangulating its own location) precisely where the animal is. The data are stored in the collar. Those data include location, time, date and movement. With a GPS/ARGOS collar, the data are sent to another set of satellites (ARGOS) which then sends the data to a computer. The system can be set up to record information at intervals predetermined by the researchers. The ARGOS satellite system sends the data via e-mail, usually a couple of times a week. "
Picture of an ARGOS collar here at the manufacturer's site:

This technology was not available in 1971, but Duane may have had access to secret satellite research he may have manufactured and launched himself.

A lot of REAL stuff going on right now - no time for Comics and Dead men and such.
"I am Tina - pronouced Teena
and I hope my little tips are helpful."
Out of a book - the book with the picture of the little girl who would have been around 9 when the book was published in 1960- 1961.
A piece of history?
A piece of heritage?
Or just an old book?

Happy new year, Jo. I really hope this year finally brings you peace.
All avenues of research regarding the 1971 Highjacking of a N.W. airlines has been research except one.
A certain amount of the skyjackers where held within the US penal system - state, federal and local.
Is there anyway to find out the names of all of the skyjackers and where they were incarcerated? What if a aging excon was incarcerated in the same system as one of these skyjacker and/or was hospitalized with one of them.
We know that many of the leads regarding D.B. Cooper came from within the penal system and that some of these came out of Jefferson among other prisons. I do know that some where housed in the Mo. system, but do not know who or when. These hijackers were held in various prisons through-out the states...but where would this information be found?
An aging ex-con being fascinated by stories told in one of the prisons does not does meet any of the expectations or criterior the public nor the FBI seriously considered...but WHAT if? Maybe this is how Cooper slipped thru the cracks of the system?
Worth exploring and means only finding the files on those of the 83 during that time span that orginated in the U.S or the destination was the U.S. Surely the number is less than 1/2 of the 83 worldwide during that time span.
Food for thought - Cooper was a dirty rotten criminal - but he was someone who managed to acquire enough knowledge to beat the system - why not within the very system he beat?
You guys want to solve this case?
Well go where NO ONE has ever gone before. Should be interesting - we might crack this case in a way the FBI could not.
What if? Just What if? What a twist on Norjak! Some people listen ranter than banter - while in prison...safer to be invisible.

It would be a remarkable transformation indeed if a petty criminal who seemed to screw up most of his crimes resulting in arrest, conviction and incarceration managed to pull off the crime of the century and get away scott free. Why do you think that is even a possibility Jo? Nothing fits. Despite your claims you have presented ZERO evidence that shows Duane was a trained parachutist. ZERO. NADA. NOTHING.
Stop claiming it if you have no proof.

I guess most of us remember Jackie Gleason, but yes, it was orginally Riley - just his name evades our memories.
You - know we are showing our age if we remember this!

Snow was joking but I have always wondered if Cooper had an accomplice on the ground. Trying to hitch a ride out during a huge manhunt isn't rational. If the accomplice was on a high peak with a CB radio and Duane had a one watt CB walkie talkie ( about $59 in 1971) communications of twenty miles were easily possible. That covers over one thousand square miles. If Duane could see the peak he could communicate with someone sited there. All he'd need is a compass bearing to the peak and the accomplice could start driving towards him and eventually get close enough that they could talk and probably rendevous especially if the accomplice had maps and a signal strength meter on his CB. He could tell whether he was driving towards or away from Cooper over a period of time. If Cooper was sharp and had only a compass he could take bearings on several peaks and that would give his location to his accomplice.
