Sky Phantom
The Clark Aviation LR Sky Phantom was originally designed as a long-range bomber / fighter. Larger, traditional bombers were easy prey for enemy fighter planes once the bombers' defending fighters turned back due to their limited fuel capacity. The LR Sky Phantom was designed to travel long distances and be able to engage enemy fighters once the target was in view. Extra fuel tanks were built into the fuselage of the plane to boost its range. Its only limitation was that once the plane was fueled, it only had capacity for 3-5 bombs, depending on the weight of the flight crew. Few national air forces could justify the cost of Sky Phantom missions to deliver such a paltry blow to the enemy. Sales of the LR Sky Phantom were low, although the cutting edge design features incorporated into the Phantom eventually made their way to the next generation of larger bombers produced by Clark Aviation. The Phantom did enjoy some success, once its heavy armament was removed, as a transoceanic mail carrier. The model pictured here has been refitted by the Family Treasure Hunters as a rapid transport for their treasure hunting activities. Port hole windows have been added to increase passenger comfort. The top as been painted a dusty brown so that, when landed, it blends into the ground. The bottom is painted a blue/gray so that it blends into the sky when airborne.

Pirate Submarine
Ethan,
I think that we should buy one of these refurbished WWII submarines. It would really help us find sunken treasures.

Black Dragon Treasure Maps
These are maps of the treasures location. The top two maps are as the canyon appeared when the ocean was higher and the pirates could sail their ships up to the cave. The bottom map is what the canyon looks like today, with no water.

Dragon Drawing
This drawing is from a sheep herder's journal. He was watching his sheep in the Desert, near Green River, when he saw the dragon in 1964. This is the last record I can find of the dragon. The rest of this message is encoded.

Dragon Guardian
Captain Ethan,
Please be careful! There may be a dragon guarding the treasure! Legend says that a ferocious dragon guards the buried treasure. According to the story, a dragon moved into the cave, guarding the treasure and keeping would-be treasure hunters from finding it. I would feel terrible if you or your crew were hurt looking for this treasure! Please be careful!
