The PNG images may not load into IE BTW.

On Monday, September 3, 2007, Steve Fossett, the first person to fly a plane around the world without refueling and the first person to fly around the world in a balloon went missing in Nevada. An airplane he was flying failed to return. No one has any idea where he is.

Through the generous efforts of individuals at several organizations, detailed satellite imagery has been made available for his last known whereabouts.

Thanks.
 
those satellite image sites don't have real time feeds etc, the pictures can be really old :\

Um......

Read the page, they are brand new images especially for the search.

IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you've loaded the following KML file below in Google Earth before navigating to the co-ordinates. Otherwise, you risk looking at old and irrelevant images.
 
should have filed a flight plan tbh

and packed a chute and not been so god damn "i've flown round the world i'm invinsible"

this bloody annoys me, i mean grrrrrr just why didnt he follow proceedure and log a flight plan...its not like he was going down the road for som milk..he was flying a plane over miles and miles of desert! at what point did ommitting the flight plan seem a sound idea?:mad:

Well for short distances you don't normally have to. He went out spotting for stuff and not from A to B. So his flight plan was "I am flying south".

Nice post BTW. :mad:
 
BTW whats with you lot, out of all the posts only 1 person has said "Yeah I'll help", most of the rest have just moaned.
 
/me thinks he either doesn't want to be found, he was abducted by aliens...or he stumbled across something he shouldn't have in the desert...
 
Done 101 pictures... Saw a white blob in one of them, apart from that just blank desert. Surely somebody will see something somewhere?
