It was travelling from Unalakleet with nine passengers and one pilot on board at the time.
The Nome Volunteer Fire Department said in a statement: “We are currently responding to a report of a missing Bering Air caravan.
“We are doing an active ground search from Nome and from White Mountain. Due to weather and visibility, we are limited on air search at the current time.
