plane crash

The pilot recently rescued off of a small plane in an icy, Kenai Peninsula lake may face disciplinary consequences, and be responsible for cleaning up the wreck.

The plane was reported missing about 12 hours before it was found partially submerged under ice.

Preliminary investigation report on the fatal crash was released Wednesday.

Alaska State Troopers say the plane experienced engine trouble and made an emergency landing on the Sterling Highway. Neither the pilot nor passenger were injured.

Homer Electric Association members in the area did lose power for a few hours last night so the utility could deenergize a circuit, since the plane flew into some utility wires when it crashed.

The settlement comes more than two years after Rep. Gary Knopp’s private plane collided with a charter plane, killing him and the four passengers, guide and pilot aboard.
