The search for Mawsons Air Tractor
My colleague Dr Tony Stewart and I (both of us are doctors), have been looking for Mawsons Air Tractor at Cape Denison Antarctica for the past two years (2009 and 2010 seasons). In 2010 we used a number of methods to locate the fuselage, but were unable to dig for it because of a blizzard.
We think we have found the location of the fuselage (there was a lot of media interest in some fragments of the tail found in Jan 2010, but these were cut off the fuselage and are not what we are looking for).
The detailed story so far was written up by me online at the Australian Antarctic Division:
