On the day before Thanksgiving, 1971, a man who called himself Dan Cooper bought a one way ticket costing 18$ from Portland Oregon to Seattle Washington. Mr. Cooper boarded the 727 dressed in a dark suit, black neck tie, and a neatly ironed collared shirt, and took his seat. He then lit a cigarette and order a bourbon. Think Don Draper. During flight, Cooper passed a note to the flight attendant. The flight attendant assumed it was just another guy trying to pick her up with a cliche pick up line. When she stuffed the note in her purse without reading it Mr. Cooper leaned towards her and whispered. “Miss, you’d better look at that note. I have a bomb.” Now that’s a pick up line she had never heard.
