What if D.B. Cooper didn't jump?

Um, where did he go then? He was on the plane and then he was off the plane before it landed.

his contribution to aviation was the Cooper vane that was installed on 727's after that incident

He was very familiar with the plane. All of his actions support the fact that he had planned the hijacking thoroughly. Maybe he discovered a place on the plane and hid. Maybe he just stayed on the plane.

There's a Bill Murray movie that has a similar plot involving a bank robbery.

I read about one theory that said he survived, lived in seclusion for a number of years and is buried under an assumed name in a cemetery in Pensacola, Florida.
Who knows...

not too many places to hide on that airplane, a possibility is that when he "jumped" the sky sluts went up to the cockpit, and after landing, if they stopped or got slow enough for him to go out of the aft airstairs before approaching a congested area, he hopped out and fled

I think he prolly landed in that lake and drowned. Maybe got tangled in the parachute lined. But who's to say that part of his plan involved. I think eventually his remains will be found.

However, the guy that pulled off the same heist survived the jump and made off with half a mil. Had it not been for his idiocy he would have gotten away with it.

FIFY


How far would someone get today trying to pull that shite?

the sky sluts went up to the cockpit

Is that why it's mostly fat old women now?

I have no basis or evidence to support this theory.

Then it isn't a theory you dolt. It isn't even a hypothesis. It is just you spewing dumb shite

Based on his selection of parachutes from the three that were supplied to him, he had no training in skydiving and the odds surviving a night jump into rugged terrain is nil.

"They also disclosed that Cooper chose the older of the two primary parachutes supplied to him, rather than the technically superior professional sport parachute; and that from the two reserve parachutes, he selected a "dummy"—an unusable unit with an inoperative ripcord intended for classroom demonstrations,[40] although it had clear markings identifying it to any experienced skydiver as non-functional.[88] (He cannibalized the other, functional reserve parachute, possibly using its shrouds to tie the money bag shut,[40] and to secure the bag to his body as witnessed by Mucklow.[32]) The FBI stressed that inclusion of the dummy reserve parachute, one of four obtained in haste from a Seattle skydiving school, was accidental.[87]"
