Chile missing C-130 plane: Floating debris found
Debris was found floating in the area where the plane went missing on Monday
Rescue workers in Chile have found human remains after an Air Force plane with 38 people on board went missing on Monday.

It was En Route to a military base in the Antarctic.
What has been found?Mr Merino said the human remains "are most likely to be Body Parts of those travelling on the C-130".
"The condition of The Remains we discovered make it practically impossible that anyone could have survived the plane accident," he added.
Earlier, Governor Fernández said a wheel from the plane, part of The Landing gear and the fuselage had been recovered, and that more pieces were floating in The Sea .
The Wreckage was located 30km from the plane's last-known position.
Air Force Commander Eduardo Mosqueira said the Air Force would carry out "corresponding checks" to determine whether The Wreckage was from The Missing plane. He also said that personal items suspected to have come from those on board the plane had been found.
A Brazilian Navy ship sent to aid with The Search efforts also located some debris. that "polar ship Almirante Maximiano of the Brazilian Navy collected, at about 15:45, personal items and wreckage matching that of the Hercules C-130 of the Chilean Air Force ".
What is known about its route?The plane was En Route from Chile's southern city of Punta Arenas to the country's Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva base in the Antarctic. Contact with the plane was lost at 18:13 local time (21:13 GMT) on Monday, shortly after the C-130 took off from Punta Arenas .
The Chilean Air Force released a map of the plane's flight path and a timeline showing it had been due to land at 19:17 on Monday at Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva.
