Two men failed to return from a sheep-spotting flight in Alaska on Monday. The men were in the air to scout for Dall sheep on what they expected to be a 30-minute flight, when they failed to return.
Rescue squadrons at Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks and Kulis Air National Guard Base in Anchorage were alerted about 5 a.m. Thursday. Searchers from Eielson found a downed aircraft with two bodies aboard later Thursday. The crash scene is in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The single engine Maule crashed at 4,000 feet on a mountainside.
