<description>&lt;div&gt;On Thanksgiving Eve, 1971, D.B. Cooper parachuted into the night’s sky with $200k in ransom money. That night, the FBI launched their investigation into his identity and location. They interviewed eyewitnesses. They developed sketches. They searched the airplane for evidence, finding a few hairs, cigarette butts, and a clip-on tie. They analyzed the flight path to determine where he might have landed. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
But after searching, and searching, and searching - the mysterious D.B. Cooper was nowhere to be found. &lt;br&gt;
