Perhaps, but I still found this headline and article rather sad:

The search for Fossett is something more than a "conventional" SAR
operation...

But one must also consider how many times we may have seen wreckage
from the air while soaring and thought it was something that had been
investigated, but never cleaned up.

If we had a database of all the coordinates, then it would be easy to
look it up at the end of flight to be sure that it's not something
new.
