At 1.27pm a caller to emergency services reported an aircraft they had sighted was no longer visible.
The PolAir helicopter, water police and military aircraft, with the assistance of Marine Rescue crews from Port Kembla and Shelharbour, swept the area.
But their search has not turned up any sighting of a downed aircraft, nor have there been any reports of a missing plane or aircraft failing to return to ground as scheduled.
