Summary
A seaplane carrying eleven people crashed and caught fire near a remote island, but thanks to quick action from nearby boats and a helicopter, everyone survived with mostly minor injuries—five are already home from the hospital, and one in critical condition is now stable. The cause remains unknown, though stormy weather may have played a role. This follows another recent seaplane mishap in New York’s East River. Witnesses described passengers escaping as flames erupted, and the plane ended up partially submerged against a rock. Authorities, including the U.S. Coast Guard and Canadian teams, responded swiftly. The DHC-3 Otter model involved was also linked to a fatal crash near Seattle in 2022, prompting federal inspections—this operator is fully cooperating with the probe.
