On Sunday (August 3rd) a surveyor in the Northwest Territories (Canada) came across the wreckage and remains of Chuck McAvoy's Fairchild 82D. The aircraft and the three onboard went missing in 1964 and despite an extensive air search, no trace was ever found. First reports have it's location only 1 kilometer from the search area and it was likely many overflew where the wreck was without being able to see it. News release planned for tomorrow.
