Fourth body recovered from site of Labrador plane crash, three still missing
ST. JOHN’S, N.L. — The RCMP say a fourth body has been recovered from the Labrador lake where a float plane carrying seven men, including the pilot, crashed July 15.
Cpl. Jolene Garland said divers recovered the body from the remote Mistastin Lake, about 100 kilometres southwest of Nain, on Wednesday.
The body has not yet been identified and is expected at the office of the province’s chief medical examiner sometime today, Garland said.
Divers continued to search Thursday for the three remaining people and for the downed de Havilland DHC-2 Beaver plane, owned by Quebec airline Air Saguenay.
