This one's a small one, but what is going on in that area of the world?


An Indonesian domestic flight with 54 people on board lost contact with air traffic control in Papua province Sunday afternoon, the nation's search and rescue agency said on Twitter.



The Trigana Air Service flight left Sentani Airport in Jayapura at 2:22 p.m. local time and was scheduled to land in Oksibil at 3:05 p.m.



The plane lost contact at 2:55 p.m., Transportation Ministry spokesman JA Barata told CNN Indonesia.



Barata said there was no indication that a distress call was made from the plane.



The plane was carrying 44 adult passengers, five children and five crew members.



An air search will start Monday because it was getting dark late Sunday, search-and-rescue official Ludi Yanto told CNN Indonesia.

I doubt it will be missing long. Any idea what airline? Some of Indonesia's don't have the best safety records.
