The U.S. Coast Guard has found the wreckage of a small plane that suddenly lost altitude on February 6 and went missing with 10 people on board.

The wreckage was found in a snowy area southeast of Nome, 34 miles (55 km) from the last radio contact.

The missing plane, a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan with a pilot and nine adult passengers, disappeared while en route from Unalakleet to an unknown location on February 6. According to the coast guard, the aircraft went missing near the shores of the Bering Sea.

Radar showed a sharp drop in altitude and speed of the plane before it disappeared. The reasons for the crash are still unknown. The families of the passengers have been informed, but their names have not been disclosed.

An investigation into this aviation disaster is ongoing.

Recall that on February 7, an aviation accident occurred in the Brazilian city of São Paulo, which resulted in the death of two people.

Additionally, it was previously reported about a plane crash in Washington, where a passenger plane and a military helicopter fell into the Potomac River. As a result of this disaster, 67 bodies were recovered from the water. The rescue operation in this area has already been completed.
