A Chilean military plane with 38 people aboard has gone missing after taking off from the country’s south for a base in Antarctica and is presumed to have crashed, authorities have said.

Seventeen of those on board the C-130 aircraft were crew and the others were passengers, Chile’s Air Force said Monday.

The four-engine aircraft took off Monday at 4.55 pm from an airbase in Punta Arenas in Chile’s far south and contact was lost at 6:13 pm — a little over an hour after it took off.Those on board were to carry out logistical support tasks at Chile’s Eduardo Frei Antarctic base — the country’s largest, the Air Force said.

The plane did have a satellite positioning system, but it did not appear to be working during the early morning search, said Eduardo Mosqueira, Commander of the Fourth Air Brigade. Once there, they would meet up with Defense Minister Alberto Espina to monitor the search and rescue mission, which was underway using aircraft and navy vessels.

May The God have Mercy on them

Disappeared to where biko

Punch is now so irresponsible with their reports. Which country military plane? Sha don give people HP.

This is not cool. The NAF have family members on Twitter. This will scare them. Just include the name of the country. And there is nothing like 'diappear'. 'It went missing'.

Stop posting this kinda story, it's absurd and annoying, this sound too ugly in the ear 👂 of the public. Punch admin 👨‍💼 pls be reasonable

Punch! One of your worse headlines... Seem to me like an instrument of deception.

Again is d craft auto piloting

Media outfits in civilized nations stopped using this kind of sensationalizing headline since the 80s. Punch should be making progress in its reportage.

Gbogbo won se wa lo korijo bi sardine, they should have go separately

After the dressing down the Air Force got at the nassnigeria about the number of crashes it’s been recording recently, I was alarmed, but it turns out that this one is in Chile. Let’s hope the missing (no matter in what country) will be found.

Have they been watching Shield ?

The ghost must have hijacked it.

Chilean plane en route to Antarctica disappears with 38 on board simple.. Awon werey. Just mention the country, simple🤷‍♂️

Click bait

Ooops looks like failed in their deception. I wonder why they hate Buhari's govt so much they always want to mislead people

These guys must be insane,plz where did these guys study their journalism bikonu, must you kill Nigerians or give people HB to make money online? Why not give us the real news and where it occurred?

Click-baiting is unprofessional. However, it helps us to be able to identify the 21st century educated illiterates amongst us; well described as LazyNigerianYouths

when was this and under whose government?

Why airforce plane always disappear?

It is hallmark trade of to sensationalize its news if not outright lies. I wonder what difference it would have made if this news headline is captioned 'Chilean Military plane disappears with 38 abroad - Air Force'

Stupid caption. Punch, you have descended to abyss. You could not tell from the caption the country it happened, making it look as if this happened in Nigeria. One day and that is when you stop hating, you will see reason.

You are reporting an incident that happened in Chile and you can't indicate that the source is the Chilean Air Force. You think this is about click bait. No, it is simply irresponsible of your type of journalism.

Mugus........can't you add this ? Chilean military plane with 38 people aboard has gone missing after taking off from the country’s south for a base in Antarctica and is presumed to have crashed, authorities have said.
