Although WINNIPEG P Royal Canadian A Force said that the Canso aircraft missing in northern Manitoba since Sunday was sighted today on direct track from Churchill, 80 miles east of Norway House, on the way to Winnipeg.. There was no sign of life and it is thought that the plane crashed and turned. The search party later reported that none were living aboard the crashed plane. A parachute rescue team proceeded to the scene in an amphibious Canso. An armada of thirty planes had been looking for the missing plane. On board were twenty-one passengers made up of seven crew men, four meteorological bureau men, Canadian Press reporter Jack Avison of Winnipeg and a woman physiotherapist as well as eight Eskimos. , The aircraft had left Winnipeg on August 15 and had encountered thunderstorms.
