The most probable hypothesis is that the plane that disappeared from the radar this afternoon, between the Modena and Reggio Apennines, crashed in the area between the municipalities of Pievepelago and Riolunato, in the province of Modena.

This was announced by the firefighters who are engaged in the search for the aircraft - which departed from Campovolo - on board which, it is assumed, only the pilot, a 61-year-old from Reggio Emilia, was traveling.

The firefighters use snowmobiles, snow and ice rescue experts, drones and off-road vehicles coordinated from a command post located at the Pievepelago volunteer fire brigade detachment.

Operations are made difficult by bad weather and the risk of avalanches.
