The experienced licensed pilot, 65, departed in his 1968 Piper PA-28-300 airplane from North Las Vegas on Thursday, Jan. 2, and did not tell anyone, per KSNV. On Thursday, Jan. 2, Martin took off at 10:51 a.m., but his flight transponder stopped transmitting at 11:15 a.m. Around an hour later, at 12:06 p.m., Martin’s daughter-in-law, Kathleen Martin, said he was traceable near Tonopah, Nev., per The Las Vegas Review-Journal. Twenty minutes later, his iPad and his Apple Watch last showed him near Mount Jefferson, which is around 50 miles northeast of Tonopah and 281 miles northwest of Las Vegas. While authorities suspended search and rescue operations on Thursday, Jan. 16, Nye County Director of Emergency Management Scott Lewis told the Review-Journal that a game warden found the plane using special glasses on Saturday, Jan. 18. The area was covered by snow during an earlier search. The Nye County Sheriff’s Office wrote in the Jan. 21 announcement, “Based on photos of the crashed plane, there would be no chance of survival.” Lewis told the Las Vegas Review-Journal after he saw the crash site that the aircraft sustained “significant damage.” “We just need to get the resources and get them up there as quickly as we can. It was very windy during our search just now, very treacherous area, very steep area. We have a lot of things to overcome, but we’re working on it,” Lewis said. Lewis said that the team needed to wait for helicopters to reach the scene, which is inaccessible by foot due to its elevated nature.
