Wreckage of missing Chile military plane carrying 38 onboard found

Chile’s Air Force has recovered the debris, believed to be from a military transport plane carrying 38 people that vanished two days ago en route to the Antarctic. The plane had disappeared in the frigid, treacherous waters between the icy continent and South America. The debris will be analyzed to see if it corresponds to the missing plane, he said, adding that the process could take up to two days. Sponge material, possibly from the plane’s fuel tank was found floating roughly 30 kilometers (19 miles) from the place the C-130 Hercules last had radio contact, Air Force Gen. Eduardo Mosqueira said.
