... its breaking news now so hopefully this can end what must be a very distressing time for his loved ones left behind.

early days but hopefully closure can come soon to his family and freinds.

"A multi-millionaire who made his fortune dealing stocks in Chicago, Fossett set dozens of world records in sailboats, gliders and hot-air balloons.

He famously made the first solo nonstop, non-refueled circumnavigation of the world in 67 hours in the Virgin Atlantic GlobalFlyer. In 2002, he was the first person to fly solo around the world in a balloon"

what an adventurer RIP Steve Fosset

No human remains found as of last update.

I'm afraid someone beat you to reporting this story yesterday

Steve Fossett Items Found in Mammoth Lakes, CA: FAA ID Cards?

The title is very misleading as they haven't found him just some belongings of him

Please discuss in existing thread, Steve Fossett Items Found in Mammoth Lakes, CA: FAA ID Cards?.

Thanks.

Thread closed.

Cyprex is right. There is only speculation that this is Fosset's plane. This part of the country is dotted with wreakages. It might be his, it might not.

Only until human remains are recovered, can it be stated that he was found.

Please add to existing thread in the above post.

thanks
