November 24, 1971, a man carrying a black attaché case hijacks a Northwest Orient Airlines flight out of Portland International Airport demanding a ransom payment.  What happens next stuns the flight crew and has puzzled law enforcement for the last 50 years.  Join us this week as we discuss the legend DB Cooper.  

Note- We incorrectly stated it's been 42 (Or 40+) years since this incident multiple times in this episode, when it's actually been 50 years.  Sorry about the error.
