"Miss, you’d better look at that note. I have a bomb."In November 1971, a man in a suit boarded a flight from Portland to Seattle, calmly handed a note to a flight attendant, and claimed he had a bomb. He demanded $200,000 in cash, four parachutes, and a fuel truck on standby. Hours later, somewhere over the dense forests of the Pacific Northwest, he opened the rear stairway of the plane and vanished into the night.Was it a fatal leap, the perfect getaway, or the birth of a new identity? Fifty years later, no one knows who Dan Cooper really was, what became of him, or if he ever touched the ground alive. But the theories haven't stopped... and neither has the obsession.Research, writing, hosting, and production by Micheal WhelanAdditional research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.
