Where: Upper-marowijne district 3 miles north-east of Pokisi, Suriname.
When: May 15, 2010

Why: Ten miles into the flight, the plane lost radio contact. The last message reporting the plane encountered bad weather. The plane disappeared in bad weather on the 15th, in a forest 200 miles southeast of Paramaribo, near the Tapanahony River where it is presumed the plane was flying (off course) to try to fly around the weather. Since then, search parties have been able to fly over the wreckage and confirm it a total loss
