I dont specifically look for an image of plane. Ive learned over time that metal and glass reflect back to the camera and the satellite image, and thats what Im looking for, said Gustin, who has made a hobby of studying satellite and video images since record-setting aviator Steve Fossett went missing in the Nevada desert in 2007.
In the two images she posted at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, she used red arrows to point to reflective objects on the ground.
The eagle-eyed Canadian woman, who sometimes uses a magnifying glass, helped bring a search team on the ground to within two-tenths of a mile of the wreckage, according to the teams search report. The bright reflection Gustin saw wasnt the plane possibly ice in the trees but searchers came across the plane as they continued along the ridge.
