There were thankfully no major injuries following a small plane crash landing east of Sault Ste. Marie. Emergency crews from Sault Ste. Marie and Batchewana First Nation were called to Lake George in the Township of Macdonald, Meredith and Aberdeen yesterday after a Challenger 2 Ultralight aircraft made a crash landing into the water.
The plane capsized and sank, the pilot who was the sole occupant of the aircraft escaped and a nearby boat picked up the pilot and transported him to shore. The cause of the crash is unknown, but the Transportation Safety Board is investigating.
