Missing Medical Plane Search Intensifies
US authorities are racing to locate a medical aircraft that vanished early Saturday morning off the coast of Massachusetts. The Gulfstream G‑100, carrying six people, lost contact after lower‑altitude descent, prompted an emergency declaration.

Current Search Efforts
The U.S. Coast Guard and FAA are coordinating an air‑and‑water search around Nantucket. Early reports cite an “electrical issue” and loss of radio/radar. Rescuers remain ready as they scan the Atlantic for any sign of the missing jet.
Who’s Inside?
The crew includes two pilots and two Canadian medical staff, with plans to transport a patient and relative from Bermuda—all non‑Canadian. Knowing the passengers may shift the search focus toward civilian medical aid operations.
