I’ve searched uselessly for it, so could someone tell me where I can find the weather data from the night of the hijacking that Tom Kaye produced, please?

I am staying out of this. Its endless and pointless. Certain parties are going to hold onto their claims no matter what - to the end of Life.

If you want Tom Kaye docs write Tom Kaye!

If you want previous wx posts go to DZ. Search Hominid, who R99 disagreed with. Hom used Carr's FBI wx files Carr provided. Here is one of them. There are many pages...  Carr turned to Hominid for interpretation and advice in the wx matter using original wx docs. Hom copied me with all docs and the conversations.... 

Beyond that this discussion is as pointless as antlers on a Miller Lite! Except to say the orig docs still exist. Posting limits here prevent posting any of them ...     

Georger, what you refer to as "Carr's FBI wx files" were produced by the National Weather Service and the FAA.  They are not an FBI product.

Just exactly what did I disagree with Hominid about?  If I remember correctly, since it was about 8 or 10 years ago, I am the one who provided Hominid with these files to begin with and we discussed them at length.  Tom Kaye originally provided these files to me to use in the original placard drift calculations. I think Carr provided them to Kaye.  And I passed things on to Hominid.

There is more to this story but Georger's version is not correct.

The radiosonde data from weather balloons was obtained by Tom Kaye from NOAA via a friend. This data was handed over to R99. I then handed over data related to the placard--area, weight, rigidity--to R99.

Applying science and math, R99 proved that the placard would drift approximately nine miles to the northeast after separation from 305. Therefore, given that we know where the placard was found it was simply a matter of reverse engineering and determining where the jet was when it separated--coincidentally it put 305 on the Western Flight Path. Sad but true for them there FBI Flight Pathers.

Then why does Tom Kaye disagree with you and R99?  Why did Hominid disagree with R99 ?

Actually, I was hoping to see Kaye's weather info because of another avenue of inquiry I'm pursuing and not the one currently being discussed here. I had heard that Tom had put together weather data of all the Pacific Northwest. I assumed that info was publicly available, but couldn't find it.

I know that Weather Underground does have historical weather data, but that is for the ground only and not winds aloft, correct?

My recollection is nobody ever found wind data for 10K feet. Again ask Kaye to share some of his data with you. Or find old posts at DZ about the weather.

Based on everyone's work, I think the weather 'that day' is a complex regional story. Except for R99, its a subject nobody wants to be pinned down about. Read Hominid's post at DZ for an overview.

Specifically, which of Hominid's 198 posts in your link are you talking about?

Tom Kaye has posted here (or at least a link to it) the NOAA measured data for the winds aloft on the day of the hijacking in the Portland/Seattle area.  And the altitudes covered goes well above 10,000 feet.

The forecast winds aloft for the Portland area were prepared and disseminated by the National Weather Service and the FAA.  The actual measured winds aloft were slightly greater than forecast and they were from the southwest.

Do you have a link to the so-called "overview" that you say Hominid posted on DropZone that contradicts the above.

Hominid was critical of your placard analysis.

Well, I'm confused.

First, Weather Underground only has weather data from the Portland airport from the night of the hijacking. That data suggests that at 7pm the wind was blowing from the southeast at 5mph and shifted to blowing from the SSW at 12mph by 10pm. This would probably suggest that at the time Cooper bailed the wind was also blowing 5+mph from the SOUTH.

I can't find any weather or wind data between Portland airport and SeaTac. Nothing near where the placard was found. Nothing near Cinebar. Nothing near Ariel.

SeaTac's weather data also has the wind blowing from the south at 7pm but also shifting and blowing from the SOUTHEAST at 14mph.

My point is that I cannot find any substantial weather data for the route south between Seattle and Portland, and what data I did find suggests that the wind was blowing from the south or southeast and didn't shift to the SSW until after Cooper jumped.

That's why I am eager to find more weather data. I'd love to hear some thoughts on this as it has been taken for granted that the wind was blowing from the SSW at the time Cooper jumped.

Flyjack is now addressing all of 99's and Ulis' claims over at DZ: from Tie to Winds to Kaye data etc:
