A search continued on Sunday off the Massachusetts coast for an air ambulance carrying six people that disappeared during a flight from Bermuda to Boston as authorities planned to comb the seabed, the US Coast Guard said.
The Federal Aviation Administration contacted the coastguard at 2am on Saturday saying it had lost contact with the Gulfstream G100 carrying four Canadians and two Bermudian nationals over the Atlantic Ocean. Searchers later on Saturday found a “debris field” off the coast of Nantucket, Coast Guard Northeast District Rear Admiral Matt Lake said at a news conference on Sunday.
Coastguard crews along with the New York National Guard’s Air Rescue Wing and Massachusetts authorities have since searched an area encompassing 7,356 sq km (2,840 square miles) using fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, boats and cutters.
“This is a large and demanding search area,” Lake said.
