I just have no idea. It’s strange these people found a few personal items but no signs of wreckage.

Perhaps dental or DNA to confirm it was him, but the body is probably spread out over an acre of property by now in little pieces of bone.

Most pilots keep their license and medical certificates in their wallets. There is no mention of a wallet. This raises lots of questions. Hopefully the wonderful news media will expand this story.

“”Is an FAA Card kinda like a driver’s license?””

There isn’t an FAA ID card - it might be his pilot’s license or more accurately “certificate.” He would also have carried a medical certificate issued by an FAA Flight Surgeon. If these documents were intact, there should also be other documents such as the aircraft’s airworthiness certificate, aeronautical charts, sectional maps, IFR (instrument flight rules)charts not to mention a flight bag that would hold some of these papers. The first would be in the airplane’s glove box but it doesn’t sound as tho’ any wreckage has been found. Strange.

I don’t remember there being any communication after he took off and I don’t believe he was supposed to be flying in the direction of Mammoth Lakes. Perhaps there’ll be more on this soon.

This boy’s in a small time in South America biding his time.

It’s evident what happened. The Bernoulli Principle is really fourth level black magic. It only works if you truly believe in it, or if you carry a levitation talisman. Fossett probably dropped his FAA card out the window. When his ju-ju rubbed off, he crashed into Mammoth Lake.

That’s why the FAA mandates a minimum 12% of all passengers on commercial flights must be siddhi gurus. They can keep the plane aloft if the mass hypnosis snaps. Look it up.

That is one reason, yes. So far there’s nothing to indicate that he did though it’s a possibility.

If this is a copy of yours, you forgot to blackout your name on the back.

Somewhat more seriously though, is it possible that he was going to attempt to splash the plane and dropped a few things out the window before he reached the lake to leave a little crumb trail, so to speak?
