Alaska State Troopers say the remains of two pilots have been found in the wreckage of a small commercial plane that crashed near a Southwest Alaska town.
The pilots who died in the crash Tuesday evening near Bethel are identified as 42-year-old Derrick Cedars of Bethel and 46-year-old Greggory McGee of Anchorage.
The burned wreckage of the Cessna 208 operated by Hageland Aviation was found near Three Step Mountain.
Responders found the remains of the men in the wreckage.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash, which occurred during a training flight.
The NTSB also is investigating the crash of another Hageland Aviation Cessna 208 last November. Four people were killed and six injured in the crash of that commuter flight.
Hageland Aviation is part of Ravn Alaska.
