Lt. Ryan's phone is busy all the time, hopefully that's a good sign.


No, it just means lots of people are trying to call Major Ryan. I
can't see how it's good or bad.


Wow...he even has an ELT in his watch!

"Even if the plane locator failed, Fossett usually wears a Breitling
Emergency watch that allows pilots to easily signal their location,
said Granger Whitelaw, co-founder of the Rocket Racing League.

"They're registered to us personally, so they know it's you," he said
by phone Wednesday from New York. There had been no word of such a
signal by Wednesday."
