D. B. Cooper, Mystery I D

Who is this 'D. B. Cooper'? Where did he disappear to? Will he ever be found again? Does anyone know what happened to him? Not long ago I addressed a current "murder mystery" in one of my blog posts. Today I'll focus on a 'Mystery From Past History' (Nov. 24, 1971) which includes an airline hijacking, extortion, $200,000 in ransom, and a missing person who has yet to be found. This crime remains unsolved as of todays date. Will it ever be solved?

Please watch the following video of the CBS Evening News from November 25, 1971. This is only the beginning of the Mystery of D. B. Cooper, aka Dan Cooper (please note that Walter Cronkite initially refers to the hijacker as D. A. Cooper):
