One of the earliest planes lost in the “Triangle” includes a story dating back 70 years when a B-24 bomber crashed in the Sierra Nevada mountains in 1943.
Two bones were later recovered a half-mile from the crash site, which was found to have belonged to Steve Fossett. A few days later, the crash site was discovered-approximately 65 miles from where the aviator initially took off. Later that year, on September 29th, Fossett’s identification cards were discovered in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California by a hiker. After hunting for a month for the plane, the search was called off, and on February 15, 2008, Fossett was declared dead. Fossett, flying a single-engine Bellanca Super Decathlon over Nevada’s Great Basin Desert, took off and never returned. One such plane to go missing with that of a record-setting aviator, sailor, and adventurer named Steve Fossett on September 3, 2007. Many of the missing planes were flown by experienced pilots throughout these many years and disappeared under mysterious circumstances, with the wreckage never found. Along with the dozens of conspiracy theories that include UFOs and paranormal activity surrounding the air force base, similar theories have long been considered regarding the Nevada Triangle. Within this rugged wilderness is the mysterious, top-secret Area 51. The triangle is typically defined as Las Vegas, Nevada in the southeast to Fresno, California in the west, and Reno, Nevada at the top. In this remotely populated area of more than 25,000 miles of mountain desert, many crash sites are never found. Lying in a region of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Nevada and California, some 2,000 planes have been lost in the last 60 years. Though most of us have heard of the Bermuda Triangle, where planes and ships have mysteriously gone missing in the Atlantic Ocean for decades, not all are aware that there is a similar place in Nevada.
