What you did do was make a stupid, erroneous statement that ELT's operating on 121.5 MHz are worthless. They're not.

True, they are NOT worthless.

What they are is, completely inferior in every way to a modern PLB.




I agree that compared to a PLB, an ELT is a waste of money. 121.5 ELTs will not be monitored by satalite in the near future reducine their effectivenes even more.

You better belive that I will install a modern PLB in any airplane I own/build.

Yeah, what is the latest news on him?

 

[Swass]

I heard a theory that he diappeared on purpose. Anyone heard anything similar?

 

[Say Again Over]

I would be surprised if we didn't hear fron the wackos.

 

[Swass]

Exactly. Kind of on the same lines as the bank robber bailing out of the 72. Never found a body or the money if I remember correctly.

Always gonna be some conspiracy whacko's out there.

Yep, with that kind of money I'd fake a plane crash vice sail away on my big ass yacht if I wanted solitude.

A kid found a few $k buried in the area he jumped about 15 years after it happened, if I remember correctly. All of the serial numbers on the buried bills matched the ones used to pay the ransom.

DB Cooper? Totally true.

There is a lock on the 727 aft air stair because of him.

Yeah, totally the same. Only difference, one is a completely true story about a real person. The other is wild conjecture by a total nutjob. And in very poor taste I might add.

What of this kid who found the cash...

 

[avbug]

Fifty eight hundred bucks in 1980, the boy (Brian Ingram) was eight years old, and the FBI got the money. It was found just outside Vancouver.

The boy got a reward of 2,760 for turning the money over.

A year after "Cooper's" escapade, three others did the same, including a neighbor of mine, whom our family knew well.

 

[DrProc]

In 1995, a man made a death bed confession that he was DB Cooper. After investigating this claim, the FBI said this was the strongest suspect they have come across, but nothing definitive enough to close the case.

Heard something new about the search on Fox this morning. They have picked out a new area to search based on new air force satellite data.
