If a sailor dies at sea, he is burried at sea. Is it not appropriate that aviators are burried in the sky?

Re: Kenn Borek Antarctic Cause/Speculation Thread
Nice place to be buried in but I wouldn't want to wreck an airplane doing it.
There's lots of bodies on Everest and usually there's more added every year.
People who die in a glacier crevasse typically turn up decades, even more than a century, later at the toe of the glacier. But in this case there's nobody hiking about to spot the remains if they happen to migrate down the snow slope.

From my limited internet research it appears nobody has ever climbed Mt Elizabeth. It's difficult to imagine a place that remote is left on the planet. In a way I find that fact very comforting. From what I can see it's an absolutely beautiful place to rest in peace.

Has anyone flown over the site this season yet to have a look ?
