The charter had the pilot, a tourist and his 2 kids, and another man, as of yet unidentified. The ID's of the 2 in the private plane haven't been released yet. It was most assuredly pilot error from 1 of them but they don't know which one yet...and might never know. I'd bet on the private plane. Most of those charter pilots have been around a while but that's no guarantee.
Thanks RC.
When they reported "passengers and crew" I figured they were differentiating from "pilot and passengers" for a reason. Either pilot could have made the error, but particularly an amphibious charter pilot would typically think in more dimensions....I would guess.
Clarification:
Was the Beaver or the 206 the amphibious plane?
I know they both can be set up as such.
leanwolf's photo looks like a Beaver.
