(06.09.2007) - An aircraft with state-of-the-art imaging technology joined the search for aviator and sailor Steve Fossett on Wednesday, two days after a plane flown by the adventurer vanished over a rugged region of Nevada. A squadron of planes and helicopters resumed operations over a 600-square-mile (155,000-hectare) region of mountain terrain after failing to find any trace of Fossett during searches. Officials have described the task of locating Fossett's possible whereabouts as "like searching for a needle in a haystack." -- AFP, http://tinyurl.com/23uryf
