Cessna lost in the mountains of Bergamo, only the pilot on board

On the Cessna 210 Centurion that disappeared in the Monte Canto area this morning there was only one person, the pilot, who was also searched in vain on the telephone. The aircraft had left Brescia and had already landed in Valbrembo - it was rebuilt - and then left to return to Brescia, flying over the Canto Alto to avoid - as per procedure - the Orio al Serio area.

In Valbrembo the aircraft had undergone some repairs. The base camp to coordinate the research was set up near the sanctuary of the Madonna del Castello in Ambivere. A team of the Dalmine Fire Brigade is moving on foot in the area affected by the operations.

The carabinieri of the Zogno company, the local police of Pontida and Sotto il Monte Giovanni XXIII, the civil protection of Ambivere and the technicians of the Valle Imagna Alpine Rescue were also alerted.

A van equipped with Imsi technology, i.e. equipped with antennas and drones, also participates in the research. The device is used to attempt to locate the pilot's mobile phone signal and thus help locate the aircraft. The Guardia di Finanza helicopter is also in action.
