Two "aviation geeks have mapped and explored a number of crash sites in the desert on and around Edwards AFB." The last 7-8 paragraphs are particularly poignant. http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/viewer.aspx DaveBj
Sounds interesting but the link took me to the front page of a 'newspaper'. maybe I missed the title?
Original story is here: http://www.latimes.com/news/columnone/la-fi-mojave-crash-hunter-20130531-dto,0,737119.htmlstory Some other interesting crash websites for California can be found here: http://www.aircraftwrecks.com/ and here: http://www.av.qnet.com/~carcomm/wrecks.htm
A good article, but the interactive map is superb. Since it is color coded, it is easy to follow. Good for them.
Great article DaveBj and thanks Takao for posting the link to the original article. The part about finding the sapphire was very moving.
