Even in a small area, it took a long time to find this Dakota

Hmmm. They say it was a "nearly new" Piper Dakota.
How long has it been since the Dakota was produced? 1994, according to Vref.

How about some of the ones they found in NV recently while looking for Fossett.

I knew one of the pilots. There have been a few articles written about that one. Shows how important situational awareness is.

flying over Utah yesterday someone reported and elt to center whose reply was, "sadly that is a real one, going since Tuesday....they have been unable to get 'up' there to turn it off but they know the outcome already, its a Bonanza" 
On the topic of SAR, someone showed me an FAA info sheet yesterday that suggests we don't have to buy the new ELTs if we don't want to for pt 91 (of course many will think this is a bad idea) so it will become voluntary, is that old incorrect info or not?

Sad. But he went doing what he loved.

The FAA requirements are minimal and antiquated as usual.
In addition to those, we'll be flying with a pocket unit that gives ones exact position at all times.

There was a case out in Idaho where a plane crashed back in the 40s. The one passenger was running for an office in Idaho. He won the vote but they didn't find that aircraft until the late 80s or early 90s as I recall. a hunter found it in a steep place and it had buried itself under some heavy brush in the bottom of a draw. I tried to find an article on it but I can't seem to find one. Bob

I hope that I will still be flying when I am 78. Instead, I will probably be sitting on the computer making witty replies.

Try looking under the office brush, at the bottom of the draw(er).

OMG! I just couldn't pass this one up. I hope they would find the bodies dead... if they weren't dead they wouldn't be bodies would they? unless of course they were zombies.

Roger that. A couple weeks ago I heard of a 99 year old man here in Wisconsin who died while shoveling snow. They said that he may have had a pre-exisiting medical condition. Really, you think???
