TSB Float Plane Recommendations

A float plane crash in northern Ontario has resulted in two major recommendations from the Transportation Safety Board.  A float plane operated by Cochrane Air stalled and crashed during a second attempt to land in gusty conditions at Lillabelle Lake in May 2012.  The TSB says 2-people drowned and 1-person survived the crash.  The TSB is calling for more training for float plane pilots and better shoulder harness restraints.
