百慕大飞往波士顿医疗专机失联 海岸警卫队在楠塔基特海域彻夜搜救
马萨诸塞州楠塔基特——一架从百慕大飞往波士顿的医疗转运专机10月3日凌晨在楠塔基特附近海域失联，机上6人下落不明，美国海岸警卫队随即展开大规模海空搜救。据《纽约邮报》与福克斯新闻报道，失联的是一架加拿大注册的双引擎湾流G100医疗专机，隶属Latitude Air Ambulance公司。
航班追踪数据显示，这架飞机于10月2日深夜约11时41分从百慕大L.F.韦德国际机场起飞，原定飞往波士顿洛根国际机场，机上有两名飞行员、两名医护人员、一名病人及一名病人家属。约凌晨1时，飞机在短短三分钟内从24000英尺骤降至11000英尺，随后与空中交通管制失去联系。联邦航空管理局（FAA）约凌晨1时20分发布搜救警报。
海岸警卫队东北区在社交媒体上证实，空中与水面搜救队伍已出动，搜救范围覆盖楠塔基特海岸外约13海里、宽30海里、长20海里的海域。搜救人员随后在海面发现一片残骸带，经确认与失联飞机有关，但截至发稿，搜救工作仍在彻夜进行中，尚未找到幸存者。
马萨诸塞州州长莫拉·希利（Maura Healey）表示，州政府将"不惜一切代价"支持海岸警卫队的搜救行动。百慕大总理戴维·伯特也发表声明，向机上人员家属致以慰问，并承诺协助搜救。海岸警卫队计划于10月4日上午举行新闻发布会通报进展。
Medevac Jet Bound for Boston Vanishes Off Nantucket; Coast Guard Launches Search for Six Aboard
NANTUCKET, Mass. — A medical transport jet flying from Bermuda to Boston vanished off the Massachusetts coast in the early hours of Oct. 3, with six people aboard, prompting a major U.S. Coast Guard air-and-sea search, the New York Post and Fox News reported.
The aircraft, a Canadian-registered twin-engine Gulfstream G100 operated by Latitude Air Ambulance, departed Bermuda's L. F. Wade International Airport around 11:41 p.m. on Oct. 2, bound for Boston Logan International Airport. On board were two pilots, two medical crew members, a patient and the patient's companion.
Flight data showed the jet plunging from 24,000 to 11,000 feet in about three minutes around 1 a.m. before air traffic controllers lost contact. The Federal Aviation Administration issued a search-and-rescue alert at about 1:20 a.m.
The Coast Guard's Northeast District confirmed that air and surface crews were searching an area about 13 nautical miles off Nantucket, 30 nautical miles wide and 20 long. Searchers later located a debris field linked to the missing jet, but as of press time the search for survivors continued through the night.
Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said the state would do "whatever it takes" to support the Coast Guard. Bermuda Premier David Burt offered condolences and pledged assistance. The Coast Guard planned a news conference for Sunday morning.
