Idaho trapped hunter rescued by airplane

Not the CAP either, just a nearby crop duster who saved the day, sounds like a Husky got in on the action too. Good to see a little positive press for small airplanes. It is unclear if either aircraft had auto pilots :? http://digital.postregister.com/dnews/today/A1.pdf

Glad the guy was found...You really have to wonder if the dead elk straped on the 4 wheeler was just getting its final revenge. #-o ... And..... Jomac was even able to get one of his ads in the newpaper article too..... =D>

Looks like the link contents are to the daily news, so it has changed. Can someone find the original article and post it?
