RCMP have confirmed one fatality as the result of the crash of a small private plane near Happy Valley-Goose Bay on Wednesday.
A 52-year-old Swiss man died in hospital shortly after being rescued from the site. The other occupant of the plane, a 45-year-old Swiss woman, remains in hospital in serious condition.
The private plane was en route from the United States to Europe and had departed Nashua, New Hampshire earlier this week.
The Chief Medical Examiner’s Office and the Transportation Safety Board are involved in the investigation.
