London. A private Cessna plane taking off from southern Spain has disappeared from radar under mysterious circumstances. To locate this aircraft, many jets of NATO countries flew on its route. The Cessna plane was later found to have crashed in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Latvia under mysterious circumstances. Officials say that it is believed that there were 4 people on that plane. The plane was supposed to land in Cologne, Germany, but instead went to the Baltic. NATO pilots and Swedish officials monitoring the plane have not been able to see anyone in the cockpit so far.
According to a BBC report, the Civil Aviation Authority of Latvia said in a statement that the Cessna plane was flying from Spain to Cologne, but during the flight the plane changed its flight path. Air traffic controllers were unable to communicate with the aircraft’s crew. This Cessna 551 aircraft was registered in Austria but owned in Spain.
Data tracking website FlightRadar24 said the plane took off from Jerez de la Frontera in Spain and later disappeared from radar. The German newspaper Bild said the plane reported a cabin pressure problem after takeoff and lost contact after crossing the Iberian Peninsula. After this, fighter planes of many countries flew in search of him.
