God bless and lets continue to hope for the best on this one. If he is lost this would be one more major loss to the world of aviation for the year along with the airshow tragedy's of the year thus so far.

No flight plan so finding him just got much harder.

They still havent found him BUT they did find 6 previously unidentified crashes. That is pretty\
wild.

Received an email today about this. Not sure how 'true' it is but apparently we can help?


DigitalGlobe is releasing satellite images today through Amazon Mechical Turk that the public can access to help locate Steve.
