Va.-based aircraft missing in South America

BRIDGEWATER -- A Virginia-based aviation company says one of its aircraft with three people aboard is missing in South America.

A spokesman for Dynamic Aviation Group Inc. in Bridgewater said the search resumed Monday for the twin turboprop aircraft. The aircraft was reported missing Saturday in Guyana after it did not return from an aerial geophysical survey.

Dynamic spokesman Rick Roof identified the flight crew as Wes Barker and Chris Paris, Dynamic Aviation employees from Harrisonburg. An employee of a Canadian company was also on board.

The aircraft was searching for uranium deposits in the rain forest.

Dynamic Aviation has sent one of its aircraft to Guyana to join the search.
