Coast Guard Plans Sonar Search for Missing Medical Jet Off Nantucket
Published
The U.S. Coast Guard said Sunday it was arranging sonar-equipped craft to search the seabed for a missing medical jet about 20 miles off Nantucket, Massachusetts. Rear Adm. Matt Lake said responders had searched roughly 2,840 square miles after debris was found Saturday. The Gulfstream G100 was flying from Bermuda to Boston with six people aboard, all still missing. Bermuda's government said it had contacted the families. Lake declined to say the mission had shifted from rescue to recovery; the cause remained unknown.
