Mumbai/New Delhi: Nearly 110 hours after the Indian Navy and the Coast Guard commenced search and rescue operations to locate a Dornier aircraft missing since June 8, a Navy sub-surface vessel has detected intermittent transmission of sound “likely to be” that of the aircraft.
Besides this, a multi-coloured sheen of oil, indicating leakage, was detected at a site believed to be near the location where the Air Traffic Control (ATC) lost contact with the Dornier.
The Dornier aircraft CG-791, belonging to the Coast Guard, with three crew members on board, was deployed for surveillance along the Tamil Nadu coast and Palk Bay from the Coast Guard Air Station, Chennai.
