Lost story of a somewhat more serious nature. In 1981 a Cessna 210 with 5
POB was lost in bad weather over land ( thick forest) in Australia, never
to be seen again, despite regular searches to this day. I believe it is
the only aircraft lost on land in Aus never to be found. There was another
case of an aircraft lost for 30 odd years and found by a forest worker on
the side of a mountain. I know several aircraft have gone missing
without
trace in New Zealand. What about the USA? any dissapeared definately
over
land without trace? It is hard to imagine in this day and age that this
can
still happen. Over water i can understantd

There was that Lear that disappeared in Lebanon New Hampshire while on an
IFR approach on Christmas Eve that wasn't found for some years afterwards.


There was the story a year or so ago about the aircraft lost in 1942 and
just found up in the glacial area of the Sierra Nevada range. The lone body
recovered was remarkably well preserved from being frozen for over 60 years.
