BT-13B on 10/3/2010

On Sunday, October 3rd pilots Chris LeFave and Bruce Guberman flew an early morning search mission that lead to the discovery of BT-13B 42-90401. After a frustrating hour of searching Chris and Bruce decided give the suspect area one more pass, and Bruce spotted the BT hidden in a very hard to see place. Several additional passes over the target have provided more photos, some of which will appear here at a later time. (Photo by Chris LeFave)
