It's incredible that at least a sat tracker, and better yet an ELT is not onboard. Even if he landed out safely, the dangers in that region are extreme.
Sad. I wish we all could see the trace. I'm sure it tells the story.
First, condolences to the pilots family & friends, hope something meaningful is discovered in the investigation. Sad day indeed.
Second, any sort of tracker/ELT is not mentioned, although it may have been there. Have to wait until the final report.
PS, [apologies upfront to peeps that knew the pilot], I figured that "due to who posted this originally" it was a case of a Flarm vs. non-Flarm mid-air and thus justification for full Flarm......
Again, a sad day regardless.
