At a glance
Decide D.B. Cooper from the 1971 flight number note and the figure 305 in Timeline. Use Mary Celeste in The story only as contrast. A later retelling that drops 305 does not replace the dossier you can already open.
Atlas Verification Checklist
0 / 4 verifiedCheck each criteria to confirm findings against the atlas verdict.
Open the existing chapter · D.B. Cooper / flight number (305)
Open the Timeline chapter of D.B. Cooper and write 305 beside 1971 on the flight number note before you accept a later retelling. A figure that leaves that chapter is no longer the basis of the decision you can defend.
Keep the figure attached · D.B. Cooper / flight number (305)
Keep 305 attached to D.B. Cooper and to the flight number note in Timeline. If a later retelling moves the figure onto Mary Celeste or onto a different year, put it back on the page that already exists.
Stay inside the limit · D.B. Cooper / flight number (305)
This is public-record reading, not legal advice, and not a how-to. The flight number note is a way to read D.B. Cooper around the figure 305. It does not add a method, a rank, a cure, or a promised result beyond that page.
Use the second page as contrast · D.B. Cooper / flight number (305)
Open Mary Celeste in The story only to see a different existing page. Do not let that page supply missing facts for the 1971 flight number note on D.B. Cooper. Two dossiers side by side are still two dossiers.
This is public-record reading, not legal advice, and not a how-to. Check 305 on D.B. Cooper in the Timeline chapter before you act on a later retelling.
Does the flight number note replace the D.B. Cooper dossier?
No. The note tells you to read the Timeline chapter of D.B. Cooper first and to keep 305 beside 1971. The dossier remains the source.
Can Mary Celeste override the figure 305?
No. Mary Celeste is only a contrast in The story. It cannot erase 305 on the flight number note.
What if a newer later retelling ignores 1971?
Keep both dates. A later later retelling does not delete 1971. Return to the Timeline chapter and write down the clash instead of keeping the louder version.
