Coast Guard air and surface crews are searching for the aircraft, which had six people aboard and lost contact early Saturday, officials said.
- On Saturday morning, the United States Coast Guard began searching for a Gulfstream G100 medical transfer jet carrying six people that lost contact with the Federal Aviation Administration while flying from Bermuda to Massachusetts.
- The search is currently focused "off the coast of Nantucket," according to the Coast Guard Northeast District. Bermuda, the flight's origin, is a British overseas territory about 650 miles from North Carolina.
- Resources involved include an HC-144 aircraft and an MH-60 helicopter from Air Station Cape Cod, alongside a 47-foot Motor Lifeboat from Station Brant Point and the USCGC William Sparling, a Fast Response Cutter.
- At about 2 a.m. Saturday, the FAA notified its command center that it lost contact with the jet, identified with tail number CGRJP. Officials have not released details regarding the occupants.
- Search efforts remain ongoing as the Coast Guard works to locate the missing aircraft, with the agency stating it will provide more information as it becomes available.
