Perhaps; it certainly had some arrogant assumptions.

FWIW, I've had a HAM license since 1963 and have been involved with the
Internet since it was called ARPANET.

None of which, however, addresses the issue of using HAM bands to get
around buying a 400 MHz ELT, which eventually everyone will have to do
or the lack of APRS station coverage in the desert areas.

Since Fossett was on a recon mission of sorts, it would be a reasonable
assumption most of his flight was low enough to get a good look at the
ground, which means zip APRS station access.
