Does anyone have the exact coordinates. I know its near St. Mary's Wilderness, but do we have coordinates.
Sentinel-2 hasn't passed over the area yet but when it does I'll check to see if I can find the crash.

I expected it to be hard to find, basically you're trying to find a Cessna-sized hole in the forest canopy. There's an
aerial image in the press today (scroll down to still image #4 with the crash site in a red circle), looks like it's from a helo near ground level and even then it's hard to see. ☆ Bri (

The same publication printed
this story yesterday, confirming the location is "at an elevation of just over 2,700 feet on the north side of Mine Bank Mountain." ☆ Bri (

Flight Plan and Path
The aircraft filed, was cleared for and flew the following route:
0A9 PSK GVE SIE BRIGS Q439 SARDI CCC KISP
Filed flight level: FL390
The route took the aircraft through the DC restricted area on its way TO its destination of KISP. The pilot was not in communication with ATC prior to entering the restricted airspace the first time. ATC cleared the aircraft to FL310 but the pilot never responded. Most likely, based on distance from departure airport and the DC restricted area, this aircraft would make FL310 well before DC. The plane did level at a higher, unassigned altitude.
Why was the national guard not notified during the FIRST flight through DC restricted airspace?
The combination of multiple deaths and entering restricted airspace causing multiple fighter jets to scramble caused enough coverage to likely meet
WP:GNG.
