R99, EU, Shutter, Georger, and anyone who has really focused on the flight path: Refresh me if you can.  Do we know an exact timestamp and location at any point on the flight path, even the exact takeoff time?  I thought there were a few points where we know for sure where the plane was and at an exact time, but as it got closer to the jump time of 8:12, 8:13 etc, that it got a little questionable.  Didn't Shutter program a few exact spots/times in the flight simulation?  R99, is this all that redacted info you've been searching for? Thanks.

Thanks.

The time stamps in the Seattle ATC radio transcripts and the Oakland ATC radio transcripts are Greenwich Mean Time and accurate to the second.  Captain Scott said the takeoff time from SEATAC was 7:36 PM PST and the airliner was talking to the Seattle ATC Center by 7:37:11 PM PST so Scott's statement is accurate.

At 9:45 PM PST, the airliner is handed off to the Oakland ATC Center and the Seattle end of the conversation is included in the Oakland ATC radio transcripts.  The Oakland ATC radio transcripts include the telephone communications between Oakland ATC and Seattle ATC controllers.  The Seattle ATC controller tells the Oakland ATC controller at 9:45 PM PST that the airliner is one mile south of the Fort Jones VORTAC in Northern California.  The Oakland ATC controller then locates the airliner and the handoff is made.

The above times and locations are accurate.  But with a bit less accuracy, three more positions and times can be estimated for the airliner between SEATAC and just south of Portland.  This involves comparing the times of transmissions over the ARINC radio patch and the time stamp of those transmissions over the ARINC teletype network.

The 19 deletions from the Seattle ATC radio transcripts would all be concerned with air traffic control matters and give such things as locations and times at those locations.  The transmissions between the flight crew and the NWA offices in Seattle and Minneapolis would all be conducted over the ARINC radio patch and teletype network.  Inputs from the FBI and others would be over the ARINC telephone patch.

Personnel at the WSHM had access to many of the ARINC teletype transmissions that were made from the airliner during the hijacking.  They concluded that a number of these transmissions had also been deleted.  So we have more deletions here also.

Those 19 deletions in the Seattle ATC radio transcripts, which are actually in the public domain, are what I tried to obtain by three FOIA request through the FBI/FAA and my US Congressman.  None were successful.

Tweedledum and Tweedledee are characters in an English nursery rhyme and in Lewis Carroll's 1871 book Through the Looking-Glass.

There is no record of anyone launching a ground search for Cooper based on a mythical 'west path'. Likewise no record of anyone claiming a 'west path'. No record of a dispute about the flight path! No record of redactions. No record that implies a conspiracy to withhold information from ... who ? No record of someone somewhere conducting a managerial conspiracy to withhold info from somebody . . .

Your and Poyner's claims deny and conflict with actual history! That may be an even bigger story than any redactions!   

You and Poyner should write a book!  Why didn't you?  Something doesn't add up!      :( 

Does Galen Cook support your west path?  ;D

Do you and Poyner recommend a Presidential Pardon for all involved with the flight path - redactions % conspiracy! ? What's your next media strategy?

Hmmmmm. more mystery meat conspiracy bs and personal attack Innuendo! 

Refuses to put meat on his conspiracy corpse because he has no facts he can cite.

You need a press agent R99 and Internet Rehab. May I suggest Dowee, Cheatem, and Howe Ltd!

How many scapegoats do you keep on The West Path Ranch?  How many Pathalopes ?

Thanks Robert.  Just to confirm, we have pretty much an exact time leaving Seattle, and we know times after Portland, but nothing in between?  Shutter-were you able to program exact times?

Certain times frames couldn't be matched. a time difference is found between the Lewis river and the Columbia. this is also visible just looking at the map itself. some entries have asterisk marks indicating the times are not correct. the 14 miles DME and the 23 miles DME both have them. Harrison writes in his notes twice indicating a time of 8:22 and one comment of 8:18. Harrison has two takeoff times, if not mistaken. 7:36/7:37. Hominid always marked the time of takeoff at 7:36:30 splitting the difference.

Another point would be no actual deviation directly east or west occurred. basically, the plane can match time frames in several places since the plane flew basically southward. you could easily go several miles west or east of V23.

The 14 miles DME doesn't make any sense unless you increase the speed to reach that time frame. then you would have to slow the plane down to reach the 19 miles DME. I found ignoring the 14 and made the 19 miles DME after slowing to 155 knots. this was when Cooper was playing with the stairs. it's also passing McChord AFB. we don't have any indication of exceeding 180 knots.

Do I believe the map is accurate to a certain degree, yes. do I believe a western path. it's possible but a lot of evidence goes against it. Scotty thought Cooper went into Merwin and then says he was over Woodland. Rat states he thought he was more east of V23. if you ask me, we need Cooper to fix the problem..

The question isn't where the plane was. We know it was generally along Victor 23 for most of the trip south from Seattle. The question is when did Cooper jump. The flight crew reported oscillations between 8:10 and 8:12. At this point, they stated that "he must be doing something with the stairs". We have no documented record of when the pressure bump occurred. No time stamp, nothing. All we have are the statements of the pilots after the fact : "lights of the suburbs of Portland", "10 to 15 minutes after last contact".

As a result, the jump could have occurred anywhere between Orchards and the Columbia.

The fact that the money was found along the Columbia upstream from where the plane crossed over is in my mind a clue that he jumped near the Columbia.

The fact that the money was found along the Columbia upstream from where the plane crossed over is in my mind a clue that he jumped near the Columbia

This could also give credit to a western path..

The money was found miles downstream from where the airliner would have crossed the Columbia if it stayed on the centerline of V-23 or on the FBI flight path.  If the airliner was flying a straight line between the Malay and Canby Intersections, it would have flown almost directly overhead of Tina Bar and would have been over the Columbia for several miles since the river flows almost straight north in the Tina Bar area and the airliner would have been flying a heading of 178 degrees True (with respect to the grid lines).

There is no reason for the airliner to have been west of this straight line between the Malay and Canby Intersections.
