Shoutout to @SixDeltaAlpha for being Alaskan
We have a new MH370, but this time, its in the Norton Sound (Bering Sea):
Bering Air flight 445 was a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan operating a flight from Unalakleet Airport (UNK/PAUN ) to Nome Airport (OME/PAOM
) carrying 9 passengers and 1 pilot. It dissapeared yesterday due to a brutal winter storm in the area, as officials lost contact with the plane less than an hour later and it went off radio roughly 10 minutes before its scheduled arrival in Nome. The flight time is usually 55 minutes, and it was approximately 12 miles offshore flying over the Norton Sound when it dissapeared.
A full on search is now underway with rescue crews on a race against time to find survivors and working in “zero visibility conditions” to get the aircraft’s last known coordinates in an effort to find it. A Coast Guard C-130 is also involved in the search, but quite frankly, this is not looking good.
My theory is that due to the brutal winter storm in the area, the plane malfunctioned and crashed. Also, there is no chance of survival, due to the sea there being WAY too cold and it being in a state of strong agitation. Put your theory in the comments below 8)
Im gonna call the news reporter from Ice711 Airways & News known as @Cynlikesplens again.
