Search and rescue teams found four bodies in the wreckage of a small airplane in a mountainous area near Ireland's eastern coast on Sunday, Irish authorities said, according to AP. Rescuers had been searching for the private, single-engine plane that left Gloucester airport in England on Saturday and failed to land at its destination on Ireland's west coast. The wreckage of the Piper PA-28 was discovered about 40 kilometers (25 miles) southwest of Dublin, in a mountainous area accessible only by helicopter. «It crashed, and the nose and front part is embedded in the ground,» said police Superintendent Michael Lernihan. «It has to be dug out.» The Irish Air Accident Investigation Bureau said it will try to determine the cause of the crash. The names of the people aboard have not been released.
