Summary
Wreckage from K2 Airways Flight 1732 was recovered 53 miles south of Ormara, but all five crew members remained missing as Pakistani authorities searched the Arabian Sea.
Minutes before the Boeing 737-400 freighter vanished, the crew reported a navigation system problem; radar then showed a rapid descent before contact was lost about 155 nautical miles west of Karachi.
Pakistan deployed navy frigate PNS Zulfiqar, a navy ATR aircraft and air force assets to the search zone after the cargo flight disappeared en route from Sharjah to Karachi.
The aircraft was a roughly 27-year-old 737-400 freighter registered AP-BOI and the only plane operated by K2 Airways, a Pakistani cargo airline established in 2018.
