On Discovery Channel right now,
"Steve Fossett: What went wrong?"


Replay at 2:00AM Eastern if you have a DVR (or insomnia).


It was a very interesting show.

I'm glad I caught it.

I did about 1500 Amazon Mechanical Turk "hits."

Sounds as though the wreckage was just outside the
zone that folks were searching most intensively.

Surprising evidence at the end that he might have
survived the crash and started walking out.


I missed the first 15 minutes or so, but it was very good. I was surprised
by their theory that he survived the crash and was walkng to Mammoth. The
crash investigators estimated he was doing 100MPH when he hit the rocks and
the plane disintegrated. It would be amazing for someone to survive that. It
would be incredible that someone could walk.
