Parachute Found could be D.B. Cooper's

Possibly interesting development in the D.B. Cooper caper mystery.

It was the day before Thanksgiving, 1971 the hijacker, who came to be known as D.B. Cooper, boarded a plane from Portland to Seattle and asked to be flown to Mexico. Experts think the hijacker bailed out from the plane's back stairs over southwest Washington.

Now, a parachute similar to Cooper's has turned up in a field in Clark County. A contractor was grading a road when he uncovered part of a long-buried parachute.

What a fascinating story this has been over the years. So much speculation, then didn't someone find the money? I think it was someone deliberately hunting for it, found along a stream bank, in poor shape, deteriorated.
And now this. I wonder how long until the FBI has something to say. I didn't realize they had his emergency chute. Ah, the stuff of legends. Thanks for posting.

Interesting,find man! I hope Cooper made it out alive,who knows he maybe out there still.

Didn't Michael Schofield find the cash?
Sorry, but someone had to say it.....might as well be me

A kid and his dad found a few thousand, indeed on the river bank. The rest has not been found. Yet.
