Two small planes collided over the northern part of the San Francisco Bay, USA

Plane Crash Alert

The Coast Guard searches for the pilot of a small plane that collided with another small plane over the San Francisco Bay on Sunday, April 27, 2014.

Two small planes collided over the northern part of the San Francisco Bay, leaving a pilot missing after only one of the aircraft landed safely.

Coast Guard Petty Officer Loumania Stewart said early Monday that search teams have found no signs of the downed pilot after scouring San Pablo Bay through the night. She said there are no immediate plans to suspend the search.

The collision Sunday afternoon involved a single-engine Cessna 210 and a single-engine Hawker Sea Fury TMK 20.

Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor says the Cessna went into the bay and the Sea Fury’s pilot was able to land 40 minutes later at Eagle’s Nest Airport in the small Northern California city of Ione.

The occupants of the Sea Fury were not injured.
