Crews search 40,000+ acres for missing pilot
Lecanto, Florida -- Right now, more than 125 people are scouring some of the thickest woods in Florida searching for missing pilot Theodore Weiss.
Investigators believe his small plane likely went down Saturday in the Withlacoochee State Forest in Citrus County after he left Dunnellon Airport near Ocala, heading for Zephyrhills.
The huge effort to find the pilot and his plane is based out of a command post on the edge of the forest in Lecanto.
