Outside reading assignment #2

I read an article from cnn.com. It was about Steve Fossett and his disapperance. Steve Fossett was a millionar that made his money in the financial service industry, but most people know him for his dare devil exploits. He was the first person to travel the world in a hot air balloon by himself and he was the first to fly around the globe solo without refueling. On September 3, 2007 Fossett was last seen getting onto his plane to go for a ride. He ended up crashing and and his plane was just found on Wensday October 1, 2008, a full year later. His plane was found at an elevation of about 10,000 in the Sierra Nevadas. Along with the crashed plane, investigators found a piece of bone that is though to be either Steve Fossett's or an aminal bone.
