Missing Venezuelian Jetliner

Apparently, a commercial jetliner with 46 people on board, is reported missing. The plane took off from Merida, Venezuela but never made any contact with control towers.

Sadly, it is said to be no longer missing.  The wreckage of the ATR-42 has allegedly been found in the nearby mountains.

However, according to one report, rescue missions are having trouble locating the site.
