Per The New York Post: “Crews from the Boston-based Coast Guard cutter William Sparling rushed to the scene off the coast of Massachusetts and were sifting through wreckage to identify parts of the downed aircraft, a USCG spokesperson told The Post Saturday night.”
A Canadian medical plane traveling from Bermuda to Boston, carrying six people, vanished very early Saturday morning.
No Americans were on the doomed plane, according to ABC News.
The Gulfstream G-100 departed Bermuda at approximately 12:40 Saturday morning and plunged 10,000 feet before it lost communication with the FAA shortly after 1:20 am.
The FAA issued a Search and Rescue alert, according to Fox News.
Air Traffic Control Audio captured the moments before the plane vanished.
The US Coast Guard is currently searching for the missing aircraft.
Four Canadians and two Bermudians were reportedly on the flight.
“You’re coming in blind. Is that what you said?” the Air Traffic Controller said to the pilot.
“You’re coming in a little weak so I didn’t hear what your response was, if you were declaring an emergency or not,” the air traffic controller said.
