The new evidence in the hunt for

I'm reading a book about the case now.

I really believe he did hijack the plane after stealing the money....based on physical description matches him, and on his whereabouts/comments made to family as per his living family members today...must be a great read!

Some of the money was recovered, several years ago someone claimed that a deceased family member told them he was Cooper. Not sure how it was debunked. I actually think he survived the jump from the plane.
