Good luck trying to find him with aerial imagery that is a couple years old.

Sir Richard Branson = dumbass

Greatest Aviator in the World? He is adventurous but the greatest aviator is saying a lot given how many there are in the world. Let’s hope he is found alive and well!

Why the fuck do we care so much about Steve Fosset? How about all those who go missing and aren't dripping in cash? Are all *their* names splashed all over the media? No..

Just because the free google earth contains images a couple of years old doesn't mean the satellites used are not still flying about the sky. Of course the system can get up to date images they are just not going to give that kind of technology away for free!

It must be tough being so stupid

Lefty = dumbass

Hey Correcty:

Google Helps in Search for Aviator

"Unfortunately, DigitalGlobe didn't have any pictures available from the area where Fossett took off Monday, said company spokesman Chuck Herring. DigitalGlobe doesn't expect to get any more images from that part of the country again until Saturday."

Shows what you know, Dumbass

A million dollars worth of publicity is staring you in the face. A photo of the area Fossett went down in published on your site is worth millions. It would also be a humane effort in trying to find the man. Every PC owner would be looking for him on GOOGLE. Every square inch could be searched with no more effort than pushing a mouse around. Who is minding the store? Joe

If he was such an awesome pilot he should have left ground control with a flight plan, that way on the "off chance" that such a "great" aviator should crash, they would know about where to look for him. I meet him in St. Louis during his "spectacular Balloon Bullshit" and he was one conceded bastard. TOO GOOD TO LEAVE A FLIGHTPLAN,,,,,TO GOOD TO BE FOUND. BEST PLACE TO LOOK------NEXT TO EMILIA EARHARDT.

Who gives a flying fuc* about this DUMBASS, If they find this stupid bastard I hope he repays all the money being wasted to find his stuck up ass. Does anybody really give a shi* about what this jackass does. Fly his ass up to the moon and let him adventure his stupid rich ass back.

I live in the area where Fossett is missing, and the hills are indeed alive with the sounds of numerous rescue craft.

I think its ironic that theyve found six plane wrecks from past years (so far) from people who werent nearly as "important" (or wealthy) as Fossett and who therefore never merited the unprecedented level of resources into finding them that is currently being used for this overrated and reckless rich man, who finally ended up rolling the dice of fate once too often. To paraphrase the Beatles, Steve is dead (miss him, miss him).

Another irony: the 2nd big news story of the week is a new tape from Bin Laden. Let's try to be more concerned with that search, it could save thousands of lives. The one here in Nevada can save only one.

A man is lost.Does it matter...if he's a celebrity or indeed if he has a lot of money?
He is someones son;brother;father or friend.
He is...simply a man.Hopefully still among us.
People looking beyond this simply muddy up the issue.
Please respect anothers life and if reality shows us that this man has departed our company...offer respect and sympathy for his loved ones.

You guys are some assholes saying that you don't care if he is found or not. Why write something when no one cares to hear it?

He is still a missing PERSON. I'm sure HE wants to be found. I sure some people get lost in their computer.Just because you can spell doesn't mean your smart enough to write.Its better to let people think your a DUMBASS , than to open your mouth and prove it.

F'chrissakes !What a truckload of cynics! this is a brand-new idea. Since Branson has the ways & the means, it was put into effect. I, for one, hope it works. Perhaps after this great idea, something can be developed where we can find ANYONE this way. I'd put money on it.(maybe Branson's money :) After all, we're all being eyed by satellites 24/7 ,anyway.
(& thanks Correcty, for post # 6; my thoughts EXACTLY) Branson=genius (not just for THIS, of course)

Nice, JERRY ... i suppose YOU are a pilot? Brilliant.
By the way, if you're going to put your incredible thoughts out there to be seen by the public- LEARN HOW TO SPELL !!

p.s. Does anyone know where to sign up for your "own little piece of satellite imagery" to search. I'd like to help.

I wasn't sure who I needed to contact, but I found a plane on Google Earth at the coordinates
39*16'00.39''N 121*18'47.27''W at an elevation of 834ft. I'm 100% positive it's a plane, but am not sure if it is Steve Fossett's.

Yeah he's sooooooo kind and generous that he wastes all his money on important shit like flying around the earth in a balloon, what an idiot. You think he would give one second thought if any of you were lost out there HELL NO. He'd be trying to figure out how to develop a chicken big enough to fly around the world on, or better yet, maybe he'll figure out how to harness cicadas and fly around in a swarm of them, he will go down in history as another idiot adventurer who did something so STUPID it got him killed, and what a shame that HE TOOK HIS OWN DUMB ASS away from his family, for his own selfish, stuck up ass thrills.

Oh and Christina, before criticizing someone on their spelling, you might want to check your punctuation. DUMAS. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA What a good laugh I got. Thanks!
P.S. I'm not claiming to have a P.H.D. in either. or neither HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Oh God this is too much. HA HA HA HA HA HA

Regardless of the amount of, or lack of money, a lost person is a lost person, and should be found. I am certain lost, non celebrities also are looked for by someone who does care.
