This was a small plane. There are very steep washes in the desert that could hide this aircraft. You could walk within 20 feet and never see it. During the intense search for his plane AC’s were found that were lost in WWII.
Someday somebody will come across his remains.
May he RIP!
Yes I understand the steep grades but there is little vegatation to hamper air search - lots of ground to cover I guess is the big thing.
Its just hard to get my hands around it.
