Rescue teams in Alaska were desperately searching over land and ocean Friday after a small passenger plane with 10 people on board went missing as it traveled along the state's western coast, authorities said.
The turboprop Cessna Caravan operated by Bering Air was reported missing Thursday around 4 p.m. local time, according to the Alaska Department of Public Safety. Carrying nine passengers and a pilot, the plane was flying from Unalakleet, Alaska, to Nome when its position was lost 12 miles offshore, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
Before the plane was reported missing, the Nome Volunteer Fire Department said the pilot had told Anchorage Air Traffic Control that "he intended to enter a holding pattern while waiting for the runway to be cleared."
