DID D.B. COOPER PARACHUTE DOWN TO CLE ELUM, WA??
Author Carl Laurin believes he did, and that it was actually his best friend, military paratrooper and fellow parachutist. Investigator Joe Koenig puts his 45 years of investigative experience in both the public and private sectors to work to look into this claim.
LOCAL CONNECTION – learn how eyewitness and Upper Kittitas County resident Jeff Osiadacz, A.K.A. “Cowboy” – played a key role in tracking down and corroborating the story.
AUTOGRAPHED COPIES
It’s considered one of America’s most notorious unsolved mysteries.
On the night of November 24, 1971 a man named D.B. Cooper hijacked the NWA 305, bound for Seattle from Portland. In exchange for the 36 passengers, re received $200,000 in used $20 bills and 4 parachutes. He ordered the plane to take off from SeaTac airport, strapped the $200,000 to his body and parachuted out the rear of that plane into the dark, cold Washington State Sky, never to be seen or heard from – until now.
