The search is on for a missing plane just south of the state line in northwestern Pennsylvania.

That search area includes parts of Potter, McKean, Cameron and Elk Counties.

The single engine Piper Cherokee airplane was flying from Richmond, Virginia to St. Catharines, Ontario with 3 people on board last night when it changed course to avoid a thunderstorm.

After the plane changed course, all contact with the aircraft was lost near Keating Summit, Pennsylvania.
