A search is underway and is being coordinated by officials with the Alaska Air National Guard Rescue Coordination Center. Airmen in HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopters and an HC-130 King are combing an area northeast of Cantwell, Alaska, the last known location of the aircraft.

"Right now, our top priority is to try to bring the pilot home safely," said Col. Jack McMullen, the 3rd Wing commander. "We will continue to search until we find our pilot. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of this missing Airman."

Per Department of Defense policy, the name of the pilot is being withheld until his condition is determined.
