The challenging start of the year for the aviation industry continues.

After the accident and crash in Washington, and numerous other accidents, today (7.2) there is fear of another aviation disaster, this time in Alaska.

A small passenger plane from Bering Air, a small airline from Alaska, disappeared from radar while it was on its way from Unalakleet to the city of Nome in northwestern Alaska, a short flight that should last less than an hour.

According to several reports, the plane on its way to landing was asked by the control tower to wait, then it disappeared.

Extensive search teams have been sent to find the small Cessna plane, which had a pilot and nine passengers aboard. According to reports in the United States, the plane disappeared when it was at an altitude of 5,300 feet. Searches continue.
