Just heard an unconfirmed report that a Flightline flight (presumably private charter) from Barcelona to Gibraltar is supposedly missing. All American citizens on board. Has anyone heard anything about that? :confused:

There's a BBC story here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/europe/newsid_1592000/1592921.stm

But it's not clear if this is the UK's Flightline. I thought they only had BAe 146s, which is not consistent with a "small private aircraft carrying 10 people". Maybe a Spanish air taxi outfit?

First reports said the flight was from Barcelona to Oran in Algeria.

There is a Spanish Company called Flightline, based at Barcelona.

They operate Metroliner and Beech 200 aircraft.

Condolances to all.
