During the flight from <a href="/wiki/Portland,_Oregon" title="Portland, Oregon">Portland, Oregon</a>, to <a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>, Washington, Cooper told a flight attendant he had a bomb, demanded $200,000 in <a href="/wiki/Ransom" title="Ransom">ransom</a> (equivalent to approximately $1,500,000 in 2024)<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and four parachutes upon landing in Seattle. After releasing the passengers in Seattle, Cooper instructed the flight crew to refuel the aircraft and begin a second flight to <a href="/wiki/Mexico_City" title="Mexico City">Mexico City</a>, with a refueling stop in <a href="/wiki/Reno,_Nevada" title="Reno, Nevada">Reno</a>, <a href="/wiki/Nevada" title="Nevada">Nevada</a>. About thirty minutes after taking off from Seattle, Cooper opened the aircraft's aft door, deployed the <a href="/wiki/Airstair" title="Airstair">staircase</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Parachute" title="Parachute">parachuted</a> into the night over southwestern Washington. Cooper's true identity and whereabouts have never been determined conclusively. </p><p>In 1980, a small portion of the ransom money was found along the banks of the <a href="/wiki/Columbia_River" title="Columbia River">Columbia River</a> near <a href="/wiki/Vancouver,_Washington" title="Vancouver, Washington">Vancouver, Washington</a>. The discovery of the money renewed public interest in the mystery but yielded no additional information about Cooper's identity or fate, and the remaining money was never recovered. For forty-five years after the hijacking, the <a href="/wiki/Federal_Bureau_of_Investigation" title="Federal Bureau of Investigation">Federal Bureau of Investigation</a> (FBI) maintained an active investigation and built an extensive case file but ultimately did not reach any definitive conclusions. The crime remains the only unsolved case of <a href="/wiki/Air_piracy" class="mw-redirect" title="Air piracy">air piracy</a> in the history of commercial aviation. The FBI speculates Cooper did not survive his jump for several reasons: the inclement weather, Cooper's lack of proper <a href="/wiki/Skydiving" class="mw-redirect" title="Skydiving">skydiving</a> equipment, the forested terrain into which he jumped, his lack of detailed knowledge of his landing area and the disappearance of the remaining ransom money, suggesting it was never spent. In July 2016, the FBI officially suspended active investigation of the case, although reporters, enthusiasts, professional investigators and amateur sleuths continue to pursue numerous theories for Cooper's identity, success and fate. </p><p>Cooper's hijacking—and <a href="/wiki/D._B._Cooper_copycat_hijackings" title="D. B. Cooper copycat hijackings">several imitators</a> during the next year—immediately prompted major upgrades to <a href="/wiki/Airport_security" title="Airport security">security measures for airports</a> and <a href="/wiki/Commercial_aviation" title="Commercial aviation">commercial aviation</a>. <a href="/wiki/Metal_detector" title="Metal detector">Metal detectors</a> were installed at airports, baggage inspection became mandatory and passengers who paid cash for tickets on the day of departure were selected for additional scrutiny.
