 | | The Lost Hijacker: D.b. Cooper | | by Fernando T, Jul 1, 2008 | | D.B. Cooper is not likely to be the man's real name, but the crime he committed was. D.B. Cooper stole $200,000 in cash from Northwest Airlines in 1971, took four parachutes, and jumped from a Northwest Airlines Boeing 727 between South Washington and Portland into a cloudy, cold, rainy night. The man was never seen or heard from again. | | Comments(1) Liked It: 3 |

 | | A Short History of Flight | | by balisunset, Jul 21, 2008 | | No one knows how long humans have dreamed of flying, but this concept informed some of Western culture’s earliest stories. Around the time BC became AD, the Roman poet Ovid told the tale of Daedalus and his son Icarus. The first storytellers as well as their audiences could see snow persisting on the highest mountain peaks during warm weather; clearly, air did not grow warmer with altitude, and the sun would not have melted the wax holding Icarus’s feathers to his wings. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |
