CAP searching for missing plane

The Georgia and Alabama Wing of the Civil Air Patrol have found no sign of a crop duster plane that vanished from radar Friday afternoon. The plane was reported missing on a flight from Bainbridge, Georgia, to Eufaula, Alabama.

The pilot of the Bellanca single-engine aircraft was identified as 22-year-old Kyle Boss. Authorities are concerned the plane may have gone down in Lake Eufaula.

Tom McGonegal, a Mission Chaplain with CAP, said the search will continue today with up to seven Cessna planes combing a 50 to 60 mile radius from Weedon Field in Eufaula to Bainbridge, Georgia.
