What a desperate crook and this guy owes a lot of money for his crimes. To me, the interesting part about finding this guy is the man hunt aspect. The one hit against Schrenker right now, is that everyone knows what he looks like and what he did. He is very visible and left a lot of tracks, unlike DB Cooper. I suspect that this guy will be caught pretty soon, but still, this is one for the books. –Matt
Edit: And he is caught. He tried to commit suicide as well.

Missing Ind. pilot may have fled on red motorbike

HARPERSVILLE, Ala. (AP) — The search for an Indiana businessman who may have tried to fake his own death in a plane crash to escape financial problems took another cinematic turn Tuesday when investigators said he jetted away on a red motorcycle.
After searching the Alabama woods where Marcus Schrenker, 38, apparently bailed out of his small plane before letting it coast on autopilot to crash in Florida, investigators discovered that he’d stashed a red motorcycle inside a storage unit a day before the crash. The bike is gone, and his clothes were left behind.
“He could be anywhere at all. Within 10 hours he could be in New Orleans, halfway to Houston, in Atlanta, anywhere,” said Huntsville Police Chief David Latimer.
