SOUTH PORTLAND (AP) — A vintage plane that crashed near Fort Williams, killing its pilot, has been moved from the crash site 100 yards off the Maine coast.

Sea Tow began on Tuesday lifting the 1946 Stinson Voyager from the ocean floor using floats and then towed it to South Port Marine in South Portland at the request of an insurance company as well as the National Transportation Safety Board.

The plane will be disassembled and reviewed by NTSB investigators.

The pilot, Dr. Louis Hanson (see obituary above), was killed when the plane crashed Sunday off Fort Williams, which is home to the 221-yearold Portland Head Light.
