FLWG answered GAWG's call for assistance to locate a missing aircraft.  After being activated by the AFRCC at 0200, FLWG members arrived at the mission base in Valdosta a few hours later and initiated a search for the missing aircraft.  No ELT was detected, but cell phone forensics were used to narrow the search area.  A FLWG Liaison Officer and the Georgia State Patrol LT he was attached to were the first on scene after being directed in by air assets through extremely dense terrain.
