Out of 109 photos, MAYBE five or six worth seeing. Mostly old farts sitting
in helicopters or climbing over rocks. What a waste of bandwidth.

Glad to see none of the current posters walked into the area where the
personal items were found that started the search again for the
aircraft and any body parts. And did not search the areas between the
personal items location and crash site.

Groups who walked the ground were experienced mountaineers and they
had a hard time due to altitude and terrain. Their recovery by chopper
due to Wx and end of the area search, got them back to rally point
before dark and before Wx closed in and was a safety measure. Chopper
pictures gave credit to organizations who furnished the choppers.

Expect the DNA test results of the small pieces of bone found, to show
if animals got to the body. From my experience using DNA testing, it
will take 2-3 months (or longer) to get any results from DNA tests.

Since the crash burned, wonder why one of the Satellites didn't pick
up????

No matter the cause, sorry end to a flamboyant flier.

He at least died with his boots on, as we say here in Texas.
