Missing Lithuanian plane found in Baltic without pilots

Lithuania today located a missing private plane at the bottom of the Baltic sea, but its two pilots were nowhere to be found, the Baltic state's defence ministry said.
"There were no bodies in the aircraft so we're continuing our search," defence ministry spokesman Vaidotas Linkus told AFP.
The An-2 civilian aircraft disappeared Saturday afternoon en route from Sweden to the western Lithuanian city of Klaipeda with two experienced Lithuanian pilots and no other passengers on board.
The pilots did not issue a distress signal before their aircraft disappeared in good weather conditions nor did they report any problems when they made their last contact.

A Lithuanian military ship detected the aircraft at a depth of 124 metres (407 feet) and 116 kilometres (63 nautical miles) from shore, the ministry said, adding that an underwater camera identified the plane's registration number.
