The family of one of the teens missing off the coast of Florida has reached out on Facebook to a friend of mine.  They are able to compensate for a pilot, plane, and all expenses if anyone can help them search along with the coast guard.  I have an email address they sent out.  They have expanded the search area upwards towards the coast of South Carolina and I guess they just want as many sets of eyes out there as possible.  If you or anyone you know could help out, please pm me.  I know we have many RL pilots here.  Thank you.

If any of the pilots that volunteer are CFI's, it may be a good chance for student pilots to log some dual time while acting as a spotter. Maybe look to pair student pilots/spotters up with CFI's. Just a thought for those interested in donating their time to this cause.
