BOYNE CITY, Mich. (AP) — The second fatal plane crash in three days in northern Michigan has killed a pilot and his passenger.
Authorities say 61-year-old pilot Kenneth Daniel Yott of Pontiac and 21-year-old passenger Corbin Dennis Kennedy of Howell were found dead Monday afternoon in the Beechcraft King Air plane in a wooded area in Charlevoix County’s Melrose Township.
It's not clear what caused the crash. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.
Four people died in a plane crash Saturday on Michigan’s Beaver Island west of Mackinaw City.
The twin-engine Britten-Norman plane was flying from Charlevoix, the FAA said in a statement.
