Before it became apparent
that nobody had survived, ap-

In San Juan, Puerto Rico, a
ham radio operator reported
hearing a Mayday internation-

stricken plane. The operator
said the pilot reported poor
visibility and rain.
THE NATIONAL Weather
Service in San Juan warned of
heavy rains, high waves and
occasional gusty winds of 35
to 45 miles per hour in Barba-
dos and the other Windward
Islands, which could hamper
rescue operations.
The Cuban airline has flown a
regular service between Ha-
vana and Guyana with stops at
Kingston, Bridgetown and Port-
of-Spain for the past 2V2 years.
