Police are appealing for information after a plane went missing in the Northern Territory on Christmas Eve.
The single engine aircraft, which was carrying one passenger and the pilot, departed Gove at about 8.30am on Saturday.
It was due to land in Katherine at about 10.30am the same day, but it has not yet arrived.
Northern Territory police are working together with the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) Response Centre to search for the missing aircraft, but said it had “not been contactable” since it’s departure.
The AMSA Response Centre was alerted on Saturday afternoon, and an air search for the plane commenced.
The search will continue on Christmas Day.
Anyone with information, or who may have seen the plane between Gove and Katherine, is urged to contact them on 131 444 and quote reference number 10212740.
