Search for missing plane resumes

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH

POLICE have confirmed a 68-year-old Noble Park man was one of four victims on board the plane bound for Tasmania which tragically crashed into waters off Barwon Heads last week.
The search for the missing plane which plunged into the sea around 12.30pm on Friday 29 January and a fourth person on board has resumed today (Monday).
A 55-year-old Mordialloc man, 63-year-old Black Rock woman and a 65-year-old Black Rock man were also on board the ill-fated plane which took off from Moorabbin Airport.
The aircraft crashed about 2km off Collendina Beach between Barwon Heads and Point Lonsdale, and water police have been scouring the ocean floor since the crash.
A fisherman who was out on the water at the time witnessed the accident and contacted police.
