British billionaire Richard
Branson said on Wednesday he was hoping to trace Steve Fossett
through a satellite mapping service offered by Internet data
provider Google as the search for the missing U.S. adventurer
resumed.
Branson told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. he was worried
that Fossett, who disappeared over the Nevada desert after
taking off in a small plane late on Monday, had not activated
the aircraft’s emergency tracking beacon.
