Three bodies were recovered. ADVERTISEMENT There was no sign of the five other people who were aboard the Bell 412 helicopter when it disappeared Tuesday in bad weather and low clouds that obscured visibility over the northern Philippines' rugged Cordillera mountain range. The five could have survived the crash but have not been found, presidential aide Hermogenes Esperon said. The helicopter crashed in a mountain rain forest near Tinoc township in Ifugao province. A team of policemen reached the site after hiking for hours in a heavy rain, officials said. Among those aboard were Arroyo's senior military aide Brig. Gen. Carlos Clet, Press Undersecretary Jose Capadocia and the president's appointments secretary, Marilou Frostrom. Both Capadocia and Frostrom were Cabinet undersecretaries. The five others included the two pilots, Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said. "I am saddened by the discovery of the three bodies," Arroyo said, adding that they had yet to be identified. After flying into thick clouds and encountering rain, the helicopter struggled to turn back to avoid slamming into 2,922-meter (9,586-foot) Mount Pulag, the country's second highest peak. But it crashed into a nearby forest for still-unclear reasons, Ifugao police Chief Joseph Cagayan Adnol said. "Villagers saw the chopper and then it disappeared. Sometime later, they heard a loud thud," Adnol told The Associated Press by telephone. About 50 policemen, some carrying body bags, have been ordered to scour the thickly forested area, he said. Ifugao Gov. Teddy Baguilat said officials continued to hope they will find survivors. Arroyo's aides were flying from the mountain resort city of Baguio to Ifugao, about 45 minutes away by helicopter, to prepare for a visit by her Wednesday. She was scheduled to inspect a mountain road project and talk to Ifugao officials but the trip was canceled after the aircraft's disappearance. Arroyo, whose popularity ratings have plummeted to historic lows in recent years, has been barnstorming the country, traveling to remote islands and provinces to meet people and promote her economic program. U.S. military officials dispatched two Chinook helicopters on Wednesday to help in the search. ___ Associated Press writers Oliver Teves and Teresa Cerojano contributed to this report.
