Rescue aircraft and helicopters are continuing to follow strong leads
this afternoon in the search for missing aviator Steve Fossett 10 days
after he left the privately owned Flying M Ranch in Mason Valley south
of Yerington.

Searchers are investigating a location identified by two separate
sightings of a blue-and-white aircraft making a steep diving turn into a
canyon and not climbing back out.
A Nevada National Guard UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter is searching the area
of Sunrise Pass, 20 miles east of Minden. Douglas County search and
rescue members also are sending ground patrols to search the area.

Etc..
