The search for the missing Dynamic Aviation-owned Beech King Air will continue today after yesterday’s efforts were unsuccessful. The plane has been missing for more than a week.

Zulfikar Mohamed, the director of the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA), said that although the overhead search forces are being used, the foot patrols have undertaken a greater role in the search operations. He explained that the search efforts are being concentrated in the environs of Eping area, located in the Mazaruni region in Essequibo.
On Sunday, a weak Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) signal was picked up but there has not been any further detection since.

When the aircraft went missing, Captain James Wesley Barker, First Officer Chris Paris (both US citizens) and Canadian Patrick Murphy were its occupants. The trio was at that time conducting a geophysics survey.
