The plane, a model Canadair CRJ-200, sent out a mayday and was later spotted on the ground by a Norwegian F16 plane.
The plane was on its way from Oslo`s main airport to Tromso in Norway, according to Swedish daily Svenska Dagbladet.
A spokesman told Swedish radio that police were seeking to reach the crash site between the north-western part of Lake Akkajaure and the Norwegian border, adding the area has no roads and the weather was very cold.
