D. B. Cooper

This is one of those things that haunts my imagination, the way some people fantasize about winning the lottery. Imagine hijacking an airliner, demanding and receiving $200,000 in ransom, and then parachuting out of the plane and vanishing into the woods in Washington State. More than 35 years later, it remains the FBI's only open hijacking case. But the Washington Post reports that there's new activity. And HERE's the FBI's release.
