Does anyone have any further information as to the status of the search? All I was able to locate was an update from the RCMP from March 7th: http://www.rcmp-bcmedia.ca/index2.jsp
Cheers,

The last I heard the Navy was going to do a sonar search for the wreckage off Quadra Island.

no sig because apparently quoting people in context is offensive to them.
