Ten Die in Western Alaska Plane Crash
A single engine turboprop operated by Bering Air carrying nine passengers and a pilot went missing near Nome on Thursday. The recovered wreckage was found on sea ice Friday with all 10 occupants confirmed dead. Rescue efforts involved Coast Guard helicopters and divers, with radar data suggesting a rapid loss of altitude and speed prior to the crash in icy conditions. Local authorities and agencies coordinated a search across ice and tundra.
