Coopercon...it's enough to make you want to jump out of a plane.
Sleepin_Dragon28 July 2022
Further suspects are explored, the story of D. B. Cooper reached out far and wide.

Well, this was a stretch wasn't it, I think once they cut to Coopercon, I lost interest somewhat, way too many fanboys expressing wild theories and opinions, this whole series, aside from episode one, has felt pointless.

I have to admit I was sickened by the way that Rackstraw was treated, I appreciate that he had a criminal past, but in his latter years appeared to have changed, the way he was treated by the so called investigators, I thought was appalling, even in death, he's hounded.

Some fascinating footage, thank goodness for the show's music and production, the interviews have offered very little, apart from theories and cranks, however it certainly looks good.

It is all window dressing however, apart from the aesthetics, it offers up very little.

Overall, this has been a waste of time, 4/10.

What's the point?
Calicodreamin15 July 2022
This episode just seemed to be an agglomeration of what was already spewed in the previous three. There's nothing new, these people just want to hear them selves talk about DB Cooper.

Comic book angle makes best ep in series
Miles-1023 July 2022
I found this the most interesting entry because I did not know about the Canadian comic book angle. Many people (unless they are "Cooperites") are unaware that "D. B. Cooper" was not the alias used by the famous 1971 skyjacker; rather, he gave his name as "Dan Cooper" when he bought his plane ticket. It turns out that Dan Cooper was the name of a French-language comic book hero who was popular in Europe and French-speaking Canada in the '50s, '60s, and '70s. The fictional Cooper was a pilot who frequently parachuted from jets and even dealt with a skyjacker in one of his adventures. The FBI considered that the real-life 1971 skyjacker might be a Canadian, but relations between the U. S. and Canada were not good during the early 1970s. The FBI was refused permission to investigate there.

FOIA litigation sucks
whouser-217-42260217 July 2022
After this episode, you will know why you don't want to work for the FBI in FOIA litigation. Thousands of pages of sensitive documents must be collected, organized, reviewed, redacted, re-reviewed, and submitted under a court-ordered deadline.
