New York Oceanic control is warning pilots flying over the search Area of the missing sub.
In a race against the clock on the high seas, an expanding international armada of ships and airplanes searched for a submersible that vanished in the North Atlantic while taking five people down to the wreck of the Titanic.
A Boeing 787’s pilot received a message asking pilots to keep an eye out outside while flying over the search area of the missing sub. Several military planes are in the search area.

Three C-17 transport planes from the U.S. military have been used to move commercial submersible and support equipment from Buffalo, New York, to St. John’s, Newfoundland, to aid in the search, a spokeswoman for U.S. Air Mobility Command said.
The Canadian military said it provided a patrol aircraft and two surface ships, including one that specializes in dive medicine.
U.S. Coast Guard officials said the search covered 10,000 square miles (26,000 square kilometers) but turned up no sign of the lost sub known as the Titan.
