Brazilian airline loses plane over Amazon

September 29, 2006 - 8:34PM Eastern Time USA

Brazilian airline Gol says it is trying to locate a passenger plane that 
has disappeared from the radar and has failed to arrive at its destination.

The head of Brazil's airports authority, Infraero, said the Gol plane 
collided with another smaller plane in the Amazon region, the Globo news 
agency reported.

The smaller plane, an executive jet, was able to land even though it 
suffered wing damage, Globo reported.

Gol flight 1907 left Manaus in the afternoon but did not arrive in 
Brasilia as scheduled, a spokesman for the Manaus airport said.

The company said the flight had 155 passengers on board but made no 
mention of crew members.

Brazil's civil aviation authority said the plane was transporting 155 
people.
