Ken,
As a 30 year pilot and trained search co-ordinator with Casara and having participated in many real searches I have to throw in my 2 cents worth before this very worthwhile endeavor of yours gets too big to handle and please try to understand where I'm coming from with my comments but been there, done that !

We need facts to work with, if we don't have them, then get them, JRCC will have them for sure.

People have to realize this is real world stuff we are doing and not just someones excuse to chit chat about aviation stuff as our goal is to return someones loved ones to them even if they broke every damm air reg thats out there they are still missing.

Many search objects are found outside the search area so sometimes we have to think outside the box if you know what I mean.

We must really be prudent when searching as the smallest clue can open the biggest door and thats what this is all about.

Thanks and keep up the good work..........AL
