Capt. Lee Little, a pilot in charge of Training Wing 6 based at the Pensacola Naval Air Station, announces Wednesday, Jan 11, 2006, in Pensacola, Fla., that rescuers are still searching for a missing Navy training jet and the four aviators on board. The Navy T-39 Sabreliner failed to make its scheduled landing at Pensacola Naval Air Station on Tuesday following a low-level bomb training mission. Little said the search area stretched from Chattanooga to Montgomery over rugged terrain. (AP Photo/Pensacola News Journal, Ben Twingley)
