The airplane took off from Casa de Campo International Airport in the Dominican Republic and was supposed to land at the Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport in Carolina to clear U.S. Customs before going on to the Isla Grande Airport in San Juan crashed on Sunday night.
A 911 emergency operator notified the Coast Guard at 6:51 p.m. Sunday that it had crashed into the waters off Quebradillas. Three male and two female passengers were returning to Puerto Rico after spending the weekend in the Dominican Republic, said Noemi Corporan, service manager for Tropical Aviation Corp. All five passengers and the pilot of the small, single-engine plane are still missing as of today. Rescue teams are still searching for the missing passengers and the missing pilot.
