The British Columbia Coroners Service had identified the two people killed in a small engine plane crash on Monday.

They say Wynyard residents 58 year-old Lynndon Delisle and his 54 year-old wife Heather died when their Rockwell 112 went down in southeastern B.C.

The couple took off in Kelowna but crashed a short time later in a mountainous region near Nakusp, B.C.

The RCMP and Coroners Service is continuing to investigate.
