Kenneth Peter Christiansen. Ex-paratrooper. Disgruntled and broke airline employee. And...D.B. Cooper suspect. Featured on History Channel's Brad Meltzer's Decoded, two books, and elsewhere. His suspect entry is the most detailed at Wiki on the Cooper case. His life was first investigated by author Geoffrey Gray, and later by private investigator Skipp Porteous and yours truly.

When the dust finally settled, everything was boiled down into a 29-page report in PDF containing 20 images and documents with all the known evidence pointing to Christiansen. This report was sent to Special Agent Thomas Eng, the current Cooper case agent at the Seattle F.B.I. More recently, a public version was created with a few of the witnesses' contact information deleted out, although their true names are given.

Alleged accomplice Bernard Wayne Geestman from his appearance on the show 'Brad Meltzer's Decoded'. He told the cast that he thought Christiansen could be Cooper.

PROBLEM: He didn't know that witnesses had already placed him with Christiansen - and missing - over the week of the hijacking. He was also caught in several lies during the actual investigation, and tried to make his own sister deny everything she had previously said about Christiansen.

Was Christiansen the famous skyjacker who beat the system?

Brad Meltzer?s Decoded Episode 6 : D.B. Cooper

Original Date: 01/06/2011

The Brad Meltzer?s Decoded team jumps at the chance to take on one of the FBI?s most puzzling unsolved crimes: the 1971 disappearance of airline skyjacker D.B. Cooper, who bailed out of a jetliner at ten thousand feet over Washington state with two parachutes and two hundred thousand dollars in ransom money strapped to his body. Working closely with the former FBI agent who headed up the unsuccessful search for Cooper, Brad and the team examine new evidence that points to a former airline employee named Kenny Christiansen, whose own brother suspects he was actually the skyjacker who called himself D.B. Cooper. This sets up a climactic meeting between the Decoded team and Christensen?s possible accomplice, the man who may have helped D.B. Cooper and his two hundred thousand dollar ransom vanish into thin air.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
