DB Cooper - The Untold Story of a Daredevil Hijacker
Over the years, the name D. B. Cooper has come up a few times, and the name itself has become rather infamous. For a name that isn't even the man's real name, or the real alias he used, it's seen more air time than most criminals. The real alias that the suspect used when purchasing his airline ticket was Dan Cooper, but there was an error in communication in the news studio used the wrong name and it caught on.
Over the years, the name D. B. Cooper has come up a few times, and the name itself has become rather infamous.

The real alias that the suspect used when purchasing his airline ticket was Dan Cooper, but there was an error in communication in the news studio used the wrong name and it caught on.
The media epithet was used to refer to the man responsible for hijacking a Boeing 727 aircraft on November 24th of 1971. The aircraft was taken in flight between Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. The final destination for the flight was the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and it originated from the Northwest Orient Airport. When the man using the alias Dan Cooper arrived at Northwest Orient Airlines, he bought himself a one-way ticket to Seattle, Washington on flight number 305 with cash. Witnesses stated that he seemed to be somewhere in his mid-40s and was quiet, while wearing an unassuming business suit with a white shirt and black tie.
So who was this man? This book looks at his daring hijacking, and tries to get to the bottom of the unsolved mystery that has stood ever since - who was DB Cooper?
