Default Help search for Steve Fossett

I see that they now have fresh satellite images of the search area in
the following .kml file:

http://s3.amazonaws.com/Fossett-GE-3...ye_3/index.kml

The new images are a three-pass swath of the eastern edge of the
Sierra, including parts of Ebbett's Pass (Highway 4) and Sonora Pass
(Highway 108). These areas include some heavily timbered areas - the
sort of places that can easily conceal airplane wreckage.

Thanks, Bob K.
