Summary

A Gulfstream G100 air ambulance operated by Latitude Air Ambulance, carrying six people including four Canadian nationals, disappeared while flying from Bermuda to Boston on October 3, 2026. The aircraft lost contact with the Federal Aviation Administration early Saturday morning after declaring an emergency to New York air traffic controllers, reporting electrical issues. The pilot reported coming in blind and difficulty hearing before contact was lost. The plane experienced a steep descent of approximately 7,500 feet before radar signals ceased. The U.S. Coast Guard launched a search and rescue operation in waters off Nantucket, Massachusetts, approximately 13 nautical miles south of the coast, deploying multiple air and sea assets including crews from Air Station Cape Cod and the USCGC William Sparling. The National Transportation Safety Board began gathering information about the incident.
