Flo asked Cooper if he wanted anything to drink. he replied with a "bourbon & 7-up" and paid with a 20 dollar bill. she didn't have change so she told him once she made the rounds she would have change. he tried to tip them once the money arrived according to Flo.
Flo then states Cooper put the back chute on and then the sunglasses. this would imply all the stews seen him without glasses? it's suppose to be early in the flight he put them on. it's possible he took them off at some points or she misquoted herself.
Tina states he tried to tip them (singles from his pocket) during the flight and not after the money was on the plane.
Alice doesn't mention anything related to the money or tips.
Shutter: "Tina states he tried to tip them (singles from his pocket) during the flight and not after the money was on the plane. "
I have the same timeline. The normal routine was to offer drinks at the start of the flight, not near the end, not while on the ground with passengers being held in suspension unable to leave the plane .... with ransom money and chutes being hauled down the isle in front of passangers no less! There is no account which says: Pilot announced. 'We have been hijacked. Passengers are being held hostage and can't leave for a while. Anyone want drinks and cigars?' That never happened!
But, Flyjack has replied saying it was Flo who served the drinks, not Tina? FJ has posted some document (a 302?) which says Cooper never offered a tip for his drink at all. Flyjack concludes, his words:
'Flo recalled events in chronological order, she mentioned that Cooper tried to offer money from the drink change to ALL stews after Flo handled the bag of money. ' But I dont see that in any document FJ has posted?
Flyjack then says:
The point here is that these stories are both incompatible and unbelievable. Cooper did NOT attempt a tip when he actually got his drink and the change. (At terminal) Flo indicated the attempted tip was after the money was delivered. (when passengers were being held hostage on the ground at Seattle) Why would Cooper tip all the stews later from drink change? $6 each?? It is hard to believe Tina would ask for ransom money, take it then hand it back claiming they can't accept gratuities.. Ransom money isn't a gratuity and she asked for it. One or both of these stories is false... they are incompatible.
The theory is the tip refusal stories were an embellishment to cover for Cooper offering them all money and one or more of them may have taken it. " says Flyjack.
Georger says: "Maybe the cow did fly over the Moon". Maybe FLYJACK has no argument at all.
