Paul Cardin (Never Was An Arrow II)
MISSING!
HERE IS Steve Fossett when he was getting ready to pilot the replica Vickers Vimy WW I Bomber from Bombardier Aerospace in Toronto, on June 1, 2005.
Steve, the millionaire American adventurer, two months later successfully repeated the historic transatlantic crossing in this replica Vimy. The trip took 18 hours and 15 minutes, and followed the same route which was first completed by Alcock and Brown in 1919.
Steve, the holder of over 100 land and air world records…including the first solo round-the-world non-stop balloon flight, which he followed up with the first nonstop around-the-world aircraft flight without refueling, flew a balloon at over 200 miles-per-hour, set the world speed record for a Zeppelin, and also set numerous glider (speed and distance) records.
And "just for laughs" he additionally swam the English Channel, ran the Ironman Triathlon, participated in a 1,165 mile dog sled race and climbed most of the tallest mountains in our world.
But on September 3, 2007 Steve went missing after taking off from the private Flying M Ranch airstrip in Nevada…to go out for a recreational flight .
No flightplan was filed by Mr. Fossett, and he hasn’t been heard from since.
The search for Steve continues…
