|  Missing pilot update
Most of you should have already seen the flyers posted at UND, but I believe this guy had been missing since late August. It is sad news: > I was just informed by State radio that missing pilot Bob Nelson has been > located, apparently not alive. He was located Approximately 8 miles north > of Jud, ND in NW Lamoure County in or near a lake or slew. I spoke with a > Mr. Peterson an underwater searcher in Lamoure County, he said they found > the victim but not the aircraft yet. They are organizing an underwater > search team now. I will keep you all informed as I find out more. Say a > prayer for the family. > > Darrel > > DARREL PITTMAN, Capt, CAP > North Dakota Wing Director of Administration > 701-328-8190 > FAX - 701-328-8191

all of the press has been: Great pilot, safe pilot.... Would never take off if weather dictated otherwise...... Wx at time of departure and all over the area.....very bad, storms, etc.....Travel in light GA aircraft was not really recommended..... Will be interesting to see what they can find from the a/c if anything.....
