Your video has a rather large error. You claim that the search area was south of LaCenter by Ridgefield. It was well north and east of there near Ariel. Also, all this cloak and dagger stuff is annoying. What's your theory? Lay it out.

In terms of Sheridan's job at Boeing, there is no better candidate I believe. However, the physical description is important. I wonder if Sheridan would have any pictures of co-workers from around that time that one might compare against Cooper.

We are not talking about just any eyewitnesses. We are talking about two young, intelligent women who spent 5 hours on a plane with him, sitting next to him and talking to him directly, trying to gather as much info about his as possible for the authorities. It wasn't a fleeting glance. That is why you cannot dismiss Coop's description out of hand. It is one of the best clues there is. I am thinking out of the box here....... If Cooper had and was using Benzadrine, or another type of stimulant, wouldn't he more than likely have one or more of the common side effects of using a stimulant. Stimulants can/will cause the pupils to dilate until they are almost completely black with a thin rim of iris around the pupil. In a normal situation, pupils will contract when exposed to light and if on a stimulant a user's pupils will remain largely dilated. Benzadrine, sun glasses and a dimly lit plane.....? Maybe his eyes were dark, but not necessarily brown in color. Didn't Florence see his eyes for a brief moment when Cooper looked over his glasses (in an attempt to show the seriousness in his request)? Wouldn't black dilated eyes have a piercing effect? http://www.drugrecognition.com/Stim.htm Vicki That is certainly possible, but I think in this case, unlikely. First, Cooper was not wearing his glasses the entire time. He did not put them on until he gave her the note at the beginning of the hijacking. Also, even dilated blue eyes or green eyes retain their color. However, dilated brown eyes appear even MORE dark and could - could - account for the "piercing" appearance.

NO I DID NOT MISS THAT - I AM WELL AWARE OF THE STATEMENT made by the stewardess - NOTE THAT CCHARGER NAMES A SPECIFIC DRUG - A FACT THAT HAS NOT BEEN ESTABLISHED. Go back and read the posts about this - "pills" to keep the pilot awake does NOT tranlate into Benzadrine, which was a prescription drug! I could have been NO-Doze or one of many over the counter stimulants. He STATED the drug as FACT! CCHARGER was leading and directing! How I pegged him for who he is - not just an interest party! CCHARGER is very AWARE of my BEEF on this and I have made it very CLEAR in other postings! Since this post is a clarification request it will not count as one of my 2 posts per day. I have NOT mentioned a suspect in either post. I happen to be in possession of research NO one else has - and I wll contribute that without naming a suspect. Yup, it's a fact.

I made no error in posting about Benzedrine. It is a fact that Cooper had Benzedrine on his person while on the plane. His use of it was merely an educated guess. Why he would use it was merely speculation. I changed or edited nothing, and I stand by my post. IT IS NOT A KNOWN FACT WHAT DRUG IF ANY COOPER HAD ON HIM. FIND THIS STATEMENT IN THE FBI PAPERS - SHOW PROOF COOPER HAD BENZEDRING. OTHER WISE RETRACT THE ABOVE STATEMENT YOU JUST POSTED. CCharger just stated in the above post "It is a fact that Cooper had Benzedrine on his person while on the plane." This is quoted that from the post I am answering. PROVE IT! Really, Jo? You're asking me to prove one of my statements? When you have made a career out of saying outlandish things without a shred of evidence? I will not retract that statement because I know it to be a fact. Jo apparently missed all the remarks in books, radio transcripts, and on this thread that mention Cooper telling Tina that he had "pills" to keep the pilots awake if they needed them on the flight to Reno. Those "pills" would have to be drugs. Robert99 Yes, and as I stated before, they could be either caffeine pills like NoDoz or amphetamines like Benzedrine or Dexedrine. Both were very commonly used in the US at the time. Also, both Gray and Smith say it was Benzedrine. The preponderance of evidence suggests it was Benzedrine. But of course it is more believable to claim your husband worked on UFOs at Area 51.

The evidence the feds have is vast. The problem is that different agencies conducted independent investigations and did not/will not share their clues with each other.

Then where is the body? Where is the missing persons report?

It's pretty common knowledge KC was gay. I always felt the reason for him being so evasive was he and KC having a "Brokeback Mountain" type of relationship. In fact, I think that's what KC was trying to tell his brother on his deathbed, not that he was DB Cooper.

The last two pages of posts made me laugh out loud. It's a real shame this thread became about Jo Weber and not DB Cooper. What a waste of time.

Have you ever walked the property? Found where the bag of cash was allegedly found?

You did say it and immediately went back and took it out. I suppose you were talking Tongue in Cheek because you came back immediatly and countered me. When I went back to the post the reference to Eng had been removed. You did state with much authority that Cooper used Benazdrine - You established a FACT and expected everyone who responded to agree with you. You deleted it and corrected it almost immediately, but you did say it! I then made a posting repremanding you on that and when I went back to your post it was gone. If I address your postings again - I will make sure to make a copy of it first. I do not usually do that because it makes the postings too lenghty. When I do it is for a reason or to make a point. There is too much going on right now for me to even post much! Now this is just ridiculous. I have never gone back and changed any of my posts with one exception. I removed the post about your husband not being a viable suspect. I only did that because I felt it was unnecessarily hurtful to you. All other posts have remained original other than fixing typos or adding info.. So, no I never stated that I spoke with Eng. Perhaps I have. Perhaps not. But I can tell you I never said one way or the other on this forum. I also never said Coop used Benzedrine. I stated as fact that he had Benzedrine pills on his person. I merely speculated on his use and what that might mean. So, not only are you unreasonable, but also completely incorrect...yet again!

First, you don't actually think that the only people doing serious research on this case post on this board do you? There are dozens and dozens of serious, intelligent Coop researchers. You aren't the only one. Just because I am new to this board doesn't mean I am new to the subject. Second, you don't know one thing about me. You don't know how much I know about Coop, who I associate with, or even where I am from. How do you know I have talked to Eng? Can you quote where I said that? For that matter, are you sure Eng is the only agent assigned to the case? How do you know the FBI is the only agency investigating his? You assume a great deal about me and my motives. We all know what happens when you assue. Third, you are consistently inconsistent. First, you attack me about me suggesting Coop used bennies, then complain I have offered no new ideas or anything "productive". Clearly, anything that supports your view that Duane was Coop is "productive", right? Anything else is a threat to you, it appears. With you, I am damned if I do and damned if I don't. That's fine. I don't need validation from you, the self crowned Grand Poobah of All Things Coop. I am really fatigued arguing with you. I am here to be part of the Coop conversation, not be in pissing contests. Let it go.
