I just saw this on the backcountrypilot.org website... anyone have any more info on this?
------------------------------
Man, I hate to be a bearer of bad news again. We have another "probable" fatality with a missing pilot right here from my home base Harvey Field (S43). 51 year old pilot departed Harvey early Saturday afternoon in his 46 Taylorcraft for a "local" flight to be back home around 5:00pm. He never returned. Civil Air Patrol has been searching since he was reported missing. Nothing yet. No transponder or ELT was on the aircraft and he didnt not inform anyone of his flight plan. The foothills around here are covered with forest. Its not looking good.
