Authorities said that the combined effects of the northeast monsoon and shear line have stalled the ground and aerial searches for the missing Cessna plane and its six passengers at the Sierra Madre mountain ranges that were deployed on Saturday.
The RP-C1174 Cessna took off from Cauayan Airport at 2:16 p.m. on Jan. 24 and was expected to land at the airport of Maconacon town, also in Isabela province, at 3 p.m. that day. But it went off the radar an hour after leaving Cauayan.
The trek continued on Sunday toward the site of the wreckage believed to be within the 25-kilometer radius of the unfinished Ilagan-Divilacan road project.
