Search efforts are continuing in the area more than a week after a small plane went missing on the way from southern Ontario to Marathon.
While poor weather has repeatedly hampered the search, the Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre in Trenton is reporting today's improved weather is enabling search efforts involving multiple fixed and rotary wing aircraft from the Royal Canadian Air Force, Canadian Coast Guard, and the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association.
They're searching for a Piper Comanche aircraft carrying two men reported overdue last Thursday night.
The JRCC is urging anyone who saw the aircraft near Highway 17 between Wawa and Sault Ste. Marie that day to call 613-966-1178.
