Steve held over 60 world records at the time of his death....
I think he was living the life many of dream of living, he will definitely be missed.
I was reminded of this tragedy again only about 3 or 4 weeks ago when there was
a small unassuming ad in the classified section of Autoweek magazine offering
the "Steve Fossett World Record Attempt Landspeed Car" for sale. For those that
don't know, last year Fossett had purchased the "Spirit of America" car Craig
Breedlove used in 1997 to attempt to break the sound barrier on land, only
to be bested by the ThrustSSC team from Britain. It has been reported Fossett
was looking at sites for the record attempt run on his final flight.
