Seaplane Crash in San Juan Islands | Canada News

A seaplane carrying eleven people crashed into a rocky shore in the San Juan Islands, sparking a fire—but all aboard were rescued thanks to swift action by boats and air support. Most suffered injuries like head trauma and broken bones, but many have since been released from the hospital. The crash, just weeks after another seaplane emergency in New York’s East River, involved a DHC-3 Otter—the same model that killed ten in a 2022 crash, prompting federal inspections. Kenmore Air, the operator, says the plane passed inspection and is cooperating with investigators as the NTSB launches a probe. The airline has canceled all flights for the day while the investigation continues. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
