The search which had been going on in the Highlands of Scotland for a Cessna 152 and its two occupants has been called off with no clues as to the fate of the light aircraft.

The search had involved several military aircraft and both civil and military rescue teams, but was hampered for much of the time by low cloud. Heavy snow may now mean that nothing will be discovered until the spring.

The rescuers had a huge area to cover, and there have been suggestions that with a flightplan or emergency locator beacon to follow their job may have been easier.
