אסונות · Air ambulance lossSearch ends for Nantucket air ambulance as six are presumed deadנכתב 6 באוקטובר 2026 בשעה 20:32 UTCצפייהתמליל0:09On October 5th, we reported a search underway.0:12Now, all six aboard are presumed dead.0:15The Coast Guard stopped searching after about 66 hours without recovering anyone,0:19and Latitude Air Ambulance says its four crew, a patient, and her son, are presumed0:23dead.0:24They were on a medical flight from Bermuda to Boston.0:27What brought the jet down, and can investigators recover its recorders?0:31Of four things we flagged to watch, three have answers.0:34The search is suspended.0:35The operator has declared the occupants presumed dead, and Canada's Transportation0:39Safety Board leads the investigation.0:42Flight recorder recovery is still open.0:44The Gulfstream G100, flying as Heartbeat 104, left Bermuda at about 12:410:50a.m.0:50on October 3, and contact was lost between roughly 1 and 2 a.m.0:54Accounts differ on the minute.0:56The FAA alerted the Coast Guard around 2 a.m.0:58Debris turned up overnight into Sunday.1:01The debris field lies about 20 miles south of Nantucket, roughly 150 kilometers1:06southeast of Boston, in water 80 to 90 feet deep.1:09Searchers matched it to the aircraft but found no one, using Coast Guard planes,1:13helicopters, boats, and a cutter, plus the New York Air National Guard's 106th1:18Rescue Wing.1:19The flight data recorder was not among the debris recovered by Sunday's press1:22conference.1:22The Coast Guard called it off at sunset on Sunday, after about 66 hours and roughly1:284,445 square miles.1:31At the Sunday briefing, the count was 2,840 square miles over 53.5 hours.1:37Those are different points in time, not competing totals.1:39Aviation analyst Keith Mackey had put the chance of survivors at Slim to nil after1:44nearly 40 hours, his own assessment.1:46Rear Admiral Matthew Lake, who commands the Northeast District, said suspending a1:50search is not an easy decision.1:52Next of kin had been notified.1:53The Coast Guard and Bermuda Police named all six on Monday.1:57Marilyn LaVon Bean, 66, the patient, and her son Sergio Wayne Lottimore, 41 were2:02from Bermuda.2:03The Canadian crew were Captain Philip Gregory Childerhose, First Officer Thomas2:07Henry Farquhar, Flight nurse Sarah Jane Payton and respiratory therapist Jolene Beth2:12Weir.2:12Bean was being flown to Boston for medical care after a stroke the previous week.2:16A family friend said all four crew worked for Hamilton, Ontario-based Latitude Air2:21Ambulance, whose president Peter Bile called the loss unimaginable and said the2:25focus is supporting families and helping investigators.2:28Bermuda's Premier David Burt said the worst fears had been realized.2:31The descent figures conflict.2:33A source puts the drop at 7,500 feet before the plane hit the water.2:38Another account says more than 10,000 feet in three minutes.2:42Flight data shows 24,000 feet down to 11,000 about 90 minutes in, then leveling off.2:48Leveling off does not show the plane recovered.2:50Canada's Transportation Safety Board leads the investigation as state of registry.2:55It says the crew reported electrical difficulties, the aircraft descended rapidly,2:59and contact was lost south of Nantucket.3:02The U.S.3:02National Transportation Safety Board takes part, and investigators deploy in the3:06coming days to assist search and recovery.3:09Flying blind and instrumentation failure have been floated, but they are hypotheses,3:13not findings.3:14A retired search and rescue coordinator cautioned that cause cannot be determined3:18without physical evidence, and Latitude says it will not speculate.3:22One expert called recovery from water about 90 feet deep doable.3:25No one has confirmed that the main wreckage or any recorder has been raised.3:29So what caused the electrical trouble and the descent remains unknown.קריאת הכתבהציר הזמן של הסיפורHeyDexהסרטון הקצר ↗מי דיווח על
