Search For Missing Plane Continues In The Sierra

TRUCKEE (CBS13) -- Concerns are growing in the Sierra for a couple that took off in a plane from the Truckee airport Monday but never arrived at its intended destination in the Bay Area.

The single-engine plane took off from Truckee Airport on Monday but never made it the 180 miles to Petaluma.

Sunday, a search party was in the area hoping to find more information on the incident and locate the couple.

"We have been going through, the photos. Looking at a photo is the same as looking out of an airplane, looking for a clue," said incident commander David Boehm.

The pilot Brenda Richards and her husband Mark were the only people on board.

Searchers are resuming their efforts on Monday.
