A solo pilot was rescued Saturday morning after his plane crashed into Moosehead Lake near Greenville during the 51st annual International Seaplane Fly-In. The plane is still submerged in the lake, and is believed to be sitting in about 90 feet of water. A plane flying to Fryeburg from Aroostook County crashed near the Eastern Slope Regional Airport on Thursday, killing the pilot. A crash at Bangor International Airport on Aug. 24 killed another pilot. It was the first fatal crash to occur at the airport. And a float plane crashed Monday on Flagstaff Lake in Eustis, injuring the pilot and a passenger.
