Alaska State Troopers say that the pilot of an aircraft which was located after a crash near Hatcher Pass on Feb. 6 has been located safely, but not before thousands of dollars were expended in search efforts for the man.
in an online dispatch that members of the Alaska Wildlife Troopers, Alaska Air National Guard, and volunteer Civil Air Patrol began searching for a downed aircraft after an Emergency Locator Transmitter was activated east of the Parks Highway near the communities of Willow and Talkeetna on Feb. 6.
Wildlife troopers and the Air National Guard both searched with helicopters, but the wreckage was not located until Feb. 10, when Civil Air Patrol members discovered an overturned 1946 Taylorcraft BV12-D near Lynx Peak in the vicinity of Hatcher Pass. A rescue team from the Air National Guard flew in and discovered the plane empty with no signs of injury, but human tracks led up the mountain away from the plane. There was no sign of the location of the pilot.
