REGINA — A Manitoba-based flying school and air taxi provider says two of its pilots were found dead near Regina on Friday. Adam Penner, president of Harv’s Air, says in a statement that two people were aboard the Cessna 172 on a night flight from Regina to Steinbach, Man. Penner says a search began after the aircraft did not arrive on schedule, and the plane was found along with its two occupants on Friday evening near Kisbey, southeast of Regina. Harv’s Air says it is shocked and saddened by the tragedy, and it is working with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada in determining the cause of the deaths. Penner says both pilots had close ties to their fellow students and instructors. The TSB says in an email it has dispatched a crew to the area where the plane was found.
