Summary

On 24 November 1971, a quiet man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Flight 305, collected $200,000 in cash and four parachutes… then stepped out of a Boeing 727 into the night over the Pacific Northwest. In this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime , we walk calmly through the hijacking, the strange decisions Cooper made, the ransom money found in 1980, and the 2016 FBI decision to suspend the case.
