The examination of the site of a plane crash in Feilding which killed two men is almost complete.
The bodies of 51-year-old Ralph Saxe and 50-year-old Brett Ireland were removed from Timona Park, Feilding last night.
A police Disaster Victim Identification Team completed their work earlier today and handed the scene over to the Civil Aviation Authority to begin their investigation. Tomorrow it is expected that the wreckage will be transported away from the site to secure storage where the rest of the CAA investigation will be completed.
Once the wreckage has been removed Police will be meeting with Manawatu District Council to organise an environmental clean-up of the crash site.
