Anyone know where Scholl's Air Field is/was? I can't find it anywhere on a map.
Scholl's Airport is located southeast of the intersection of Northeast 117th Avenue & Northeast 95th Street. the runway is still there being used by a business. it closed sometime in the early 90's.
The photo below shows the flight path going over Scholl's. near by you can see the parachute on the map.
Smith's free-lunch-buzzer has gone off! So let me simply ask: 'Who landed at Scholl's airport the evening of 11-24-71 and where did he go'?
There are 302's about this.
The F-106 pilot's notes probably end all speculation about an east path or a west path, imho. 
*This may take until Monday until I can find and talk to two people, if they are still alive. I pray they are, and their memory is sound!
The surprises never end. Just exactly how did the F-106 pilots determine the ground point where they claim Cooper jumped? Georger apparently believes they had x-ray eyes. The facts seem to be that the F-106 pilots were 5 miles behind the airliner and never saw anyone jump either visually or on their radar systems. And they were above an overcast and several additional cloud layers and could not possibly have had a view of the ground. But that doesn't discourage Georger and others who try to arrange the facts to fit their theories.
Incidentally, in an early post on the current DZ Cooper forum, Ckret states that Cooper could not possibly have known his location when he jumped. And that statement is absolutely true.
Recent posts on DZ by well known wackos claim that the wind was from the southeast at Portland when Cooper jumped. One of these characters posts a 302 form that lists the 7:00PM, 8:00PM, and 9:00PM Aviation Sequence Reports for Portland and a few other locations plus a winds aloft estimate for the Portland area for the 8:00PM to 9:00PM time period.
But he apparently doesn't know how to read those sequence reports or the winds aloft estimate. They indicate that the winds aloft were from the southwest (225 degrees true) or further west. They absolutely do not support the claim that the winds were from the southeast.
Those estimated winds aloft are of unknown origin. The National Weather Service is responsible for preparing the winds aloft forecasts that are used in FAA briefings. They do not predict winds aloft for less than 3000 feet above the surface.
In any event, the winds aloft were substantially higher than the estimates shown in the DZ post as well as the predictions in the NWS forecasts. The actual measured winds aloft and directions only recently became available to the Cooper community thanks to the efforts of Tom Kaye. To repeat, the radiosonde data is actual measured data and not predictions.
Anyone who is even casually interested in determining the weather and flight path during the Cooper hijacking should make some effort to understand them. The NWS has excellent publications on aviation weather and the FAA has excellent publications on instrument flying, ATC procedures, navigation, and everything else related to aviation. Most if not all of these publications can be downloaded for free. I'm sure that Georger will appreciate that.
