It was the consensus of opinion among the three individuals above, each of whom has had considerable experience with infrared imagery, that efforts to locate the attache case by this means would probably prove futile. The terrain, as described, would neutralize any effort, particularly if tall trees and mountains are part of its makeup. Further explained was the necessity for the presence of heat which would need to be generated by the object (attache case) in contrast to the surrounding terrain for successful infrared high resolution photography. The size of the attache case provides a poor target for any type of aerial photography, including visual photography.
