D.B. Cooper Part 2
What makes the legend of D. B. Cooper so enduring is not so much the crime itself, but everything that happened after.\xa0 Cooper's skyjacking was just one of many during a wave in the era.\xa0 His method of escape was only somewhat novel.\xa0 Although he seemed to know about some commercial jet aviation aspects, a few of his choices left authorities questioning his skills, rationale, and, therefore, his background.\xa0 But what continues to capture the public's imagination is the mystery of his disappearance and speculation about his identity.\xa0 The two pieces of verified evidence found outside the plane to date, a placard for the Airstairs and a few ransom money packets, raised more questions than provided answers about where he landed and if he survived the jump.\xa0 Could a plan so daring and defiant have worked, or did cavalier confidence doom him?\xa0 Part two of our series will continue with the investigation that triggered one of the most extensive manhunts in U.S. history and lead to the final mystery \u2013 just who was D. B. Cooper?\xa0
