DB Cooper is back. The man famous for hijacking a plane in 1971, demanding $200,000 ransom, then parachuting into mythology has struck again.
Changing his name to Marty Shrenker he made a new life for himself as a big investor in Indiana. Recently caught both by State officials as a schnook and by the economic downturn, Mr. Shrenker resorted to his old ways.
Flying his plane out of Alabama, he radioed a fake call to the FCA that his windshield had been smashed, put his plane on autopilot and bailed out. Being the conscientious man he was, he left the plane aimed at the metropolis of Pensacola (this is really true!).
When Navy planes scrambled to check out the plane flew by, they could see no damage to the windshield and could see no Shrenker. Fortunately the plane crashed in a desolate swamp. Unfortunately for Cooper (aka Shrenker) he got caught (this is really true!).
Mr. Cooper has lost all the money he won, however producers are battering down his cell bars for the movie rights.
