Coast Guard searching for missing jet carrying 6 people bound for Boston

A private Gulfstream jet carrying six people disappeared while traveling from Bermuda to Boston on Saturday, the U.S. Coast Guard said. The Federal Aviation Administration notified the Coast Guard early Saturday that it had lost contact with the aircraft, which the Coast Guard said is a Gulfstream used as a medical transfer platform. Coast Guard officials dispatched both air and surface crews to search near Nantucket, an affluent island community south of mainland Massachusetts. AccuWeather reported clear conditions over Nantucket as of Saturday morning. The incident comes as authorities work to locate the plane and confirm its status and route.
