I told him that we had used only law enforcement
personnel; that this was extremly ruggqed terrain and not the
kind of territory you could lay off in a grid and search
ninutely at arm's length. He said to include in our next
teletype something about the terrain.
4. Ho also said to include in ovr next teletype
serething about weather conditions in the drop area at the time
the drop occurred.
5. He also wanted to know if we had given
consideration to hiring a professional parachutist or make a
simulated drop with a durmy and follovring it to the ground.
He wondered if anything could be gained by such a rancuver.
I pointed out to him that anything we did by way of
simiulating the conditions would be a very broad approximation
since we didn't know exactly where the plane was, assuning
that the hijacker did go out at 8:12 PM, when they felt the
"oscillation", Since this would vary with such factors as
wind direction; which side of the flyway the plane happencd
to be on at the time, ete. He said he understands this but
he would like us to think about it.
