N. VIRGINIA SEARCHED FOR MISSING AIRPLANE

Fifteen airplanes and 17 ground teams searched across Northern Virginia Saturday for a missing single-engine airplane with six men aboard, officials said.

Linda Utting, a Civil Air Patrol public affairs officer, said the search area stretched from Winchester to Dumfries.

The maroon and white Cessna 210, which took off at 1:30 a.m. Thursday from Manteo, N.C., was reported missing by the passengers' relatives Thursday afternoon. The men had gone fishing in North Carolina on Tuesday.
