Part 67 of the 302's is at the FBI Vault.  I skimmed through and here are some high points and some observations.  Most of these are in order of how I read it.

There is a lot on suspects that people called in.  I skim faster through these.
The money find is discussed in detail, as is looking at the $ for prints or mineral deposits.  One note says the money looks to have been eroded from being on the river floor or something like that
DNA is mentioned around the year 2002.  STR's, etc.
Composite B is mentioned a few times.  One witness says they definitely saw him with his sunglasses off.  They were employed by NWA. I assume Flo.
It says he sat in two seats, later on someone said he started in 18E the middle, then was in the window seat.  The FBI checked two seats for hair and got a sample.  I thought he sat in 18D the aisle then moved to 18E.  I'm curious about this one.
The cowboy and the "altercation" are mentioned
A male witness says he saw him without sunglasses on the plane
One witness mentions sagging chin (most likely Mitchell)
One witness says the composite should have a broader nose
There are time stamps from radio comms and it looks like locations

All in all this was a good read.  I just summarized, so if anyone has any other observations, I'd like to hear.

"Mr. George Harrison, Northwest Airlines(NWA), Flight Operations, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, (SeaTac) advised that he talked with Mr. Barry Halstead of Pacific Aviation at Boeing Field, Seattle, in order to secure parachutes . . . "

The above captures the times back in the 60s and 70s, and how things commonly worked even in large programs and corporations.  Things and operations could be remarkably informal, personal, involving a few people  in strategic offices ... It sometimes seemed like a small club functioning. It was like this in large corporations and in large institutions .... on any given day one or two people could be handling, directing, and dealing with very large problems, making calls, receiving calls ...

George Harrison was obviously one such personal in NWO operations who was activated to perform multiple tasks dealing with the Cooper hijacking. Actions were being set into motion, decisions being made, people being tasked to 'do this-do that' .... perhaps without moment-by-moment records being kept.

It was all very personal for those involved!

Unless McCoy's sister in law and kids are all colluding in some money-making scheme, I consider the case closed. I may not be the best judge of character, but listening to the sister, and watching the McCoy kids tell their story on video, I'm convinced they are not colluding for cash, but simply getting the story off their chest with zero ulterior motive. All of the other "whataboutisms" can be easily dismissed. The hard evidence is first-hand testimony. Apparently, Gryder has an additional trove of "case closing" evidence that will be presented at some future date, and I trust he does. Case. Closed.

We'll see, Gryder was completely unaware of the extensive investigation the FBI did on McCoy, and how thoroughly they eliminated him as a suspect in the case back in '72. The results of their investigation are available on the FBI vault. The McCoy children have not presented any evidence, and nothing has been presented that wasn't already in the Calame and Rhodes book.

Gryder has studied this case for, what, 20 years? His doc film goes into great detail about the FBI investigation on McCoy, and reveals (1) the numerous errors made, (2) assumptions based on "facts" that were later debunked, and (3) flat out after-the-fact CYA.

I would suggest searching Martin Andrade's previous posts on this topic. He does a marvelous job of using the FBI documents to prove that McCoy was no where near the Pacific Northwest on the date of the hijacking.

The sister's new confession (2021) invalidates the FBI assertion. McCoy and his wife were not at home over Thanksgiving. The sister stayed with the kids as babysitter.

If Dan Gryder solved the case, how come no media picked up on it? Previous second hand confessions got a lot more attention. Why is it that none of the people who have extensive knowledge of the case agree with him? Why did Gryder lash out at his critics? What evidence did he present that wasn't in the book The Real McCoy? Why do you believe McCoy's kids, but not LD Cooper's niece or Walt Reca's neice or Duane Weber's widow or Jack Collins' son or Wolfgang Gossett's son or Ted Braden's stepchildren?

I was very aware of the doc before it came out, I had Gryder on my show and had lunch with him a few weeks before it came out. I was excited for it and I watched the live premiere. Hell, I'm even in it. Gryder promised me I'd be convinced he solved the case, and the entire DBC community would agree with him. I'm sure many others here have seen it. There are several people here that have over 10 years of documented involvement in the case and they don't believe Cooper and McCoy are the same person, but you watched one YouTube video and you're confident you know who DB Cooper was? Andrade1812 is the author of one of the best books on the case (Finding DB Cooper, you should probably read it) and is well respected among his peers. You shouldn't dismiss what his work.

I apologize for not being super friendly. Maybe if Gryder hadn't lashed out against me because I wouldn't publicly state he solved the case, I'd feel differently.

There are people on this site (including me) who think Cooper died in the jump as a no pull.  Consequently, anyone who was still breathing after 8:20PM PST on November 24,1971 could not be Cooper. 

Marty, et. al.: Can we get a timeline on Richard McCoy?

Here's what I've got so far:

1. Tuesday, November 23. R. McCoy misses class. Calame said he had a gas receipt for McCoy from a site about halfway to Las Vegas from Provo.
2. Wednesday, November 24. Denise Burns arrives in Provo to baby sit the kids.
3. Thursday, T-Day, November 25.
          - FBI says a classmate of Richard sees him at 10 am at his home in Provo.
          - Calame said he has corroboration from McCoy phone company that Richard made a collect call to Provo from the Tropicana Hotel in Vegas at 10 pm.
          - Calame also said he has another gas receipt for McCoy from Vegas for earlier that evening.
4. Current testimony from Denise Burns is that Richard and Karen left Provo for California during the day on the 25th, and were gone for 3-4 days.

So, is our current understanding that McCoy drove south towards Las Vegas on Tuesday, but apparently came home, and left again - this time for Vegas/California on the 25th sometime during the day but early enough to get to Vegas by evening and make a call at 10 pm and get gas, too?
