Missing Canadian air ambulance disappearance

Overview

A Canadian-registered Gulfstream G100 air ambulance, operated by Latitude Air Ambulance, disappeared while performing a medical evacuation flight from Bermuda to Boston. The aircraft was carrying six people, including two pilots, two medical staff, a patient, and a family member. Occupants included four Canadian citizens and two Bermudian citizens.

Initial reports indicated the aircraft experienced a rapid descent from 24,000 feet to 11,000 feet after the pilot declared an emergency due to electrical issues during a storm. The US Coast Guard subsequently discovered a debris field off the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts.

After approximately 66 hours and a search covering 4,445 miles, the US Coast Guard suspended active search operations on October 4, 2026. While debris was located, officials noted that finding the aircraft’s black box remains a significant challenge due to the spread of the debris.
