The pilot of a float plane is not hurt after his aircraft lost power to its engine yesterday as it was flying over Lake Superior. A spokesperson at the search and rescue centre in Trenton says the pilot landed the plane safely about a mile outside the habour breakwall just before 10 o’clock in the morning and was towed by a coast guard vessel to a seaplane base. The cause of the engine failure isn’t known.
