Search for victims ends after mid-air crash of Alaska tour planes; probe begins

Searchers found the bodies of the last two Alaska seaplane crash victims on Tuesday evening, after a hunt through the debris and frigid waters following a mid-air collision that killed six people and injured 10, officials said. The two missing, an Australian and a Canadian, had been among 14 passengers from a Princess Cruises ship who boarded two seaplanes operated by separate tour companies in the town of Ketchikan on Monday, the cruise line said. "This is not the outcome we hoped for," said U.S. Coast Guard Capt. Stephen White, offering the searchers' condolences to the families of the dead.
