Mr Zebra and I were watching a YouTube documentary about this just yesterday, and Mr Zebra had a very interesting theory which I think is worthy of mentioning here to see what you all think...
"He seemed to know a lot about planes. What if he concealed himself somewhere on the plane, rather than jumping out? No one saw him jump, they only saw the light saying that the door had opened. What if he opened the door then hid?
Loafers would be good for sneaking about quietly on a plane. Also when he told the stewardess that he 'wouldn't need' the parachute instructions that had been provided."
I rather like this theory, and it would go some way to explaining why they never found him. They're looking for someone who jumped out of a plane, not someone who snuck off the plane in Reno and walked away. Plus, when the plane landed they looked around the seat where he'd been sitting, for DNA evidence and what-have-you, but it doesn't appear they searched the plane in any great detail as they had no reason to.
Thoughts? Anyone with aircraft knowledge have any idea whether there are such hidey-holes? Access to the baggage compartment from the floor of the plane, etc?
