Dr. Paul Sokoloski, who was piloting the Cessna, was killed in the incident. He was performing training exercises in the plane prior to the crash, WHTM reported. <\/p>\n

NTSB officials have stated that the pilots were in communication with each other before the crash occurred. The helicopter pilots were unable to see the plane coming due to their position and orientation. <\/p>\n

An investigation into the cause of the crash remains ongoing. <\/p>\n

The initial NTSB report shows investigators found no evidence of pre-impact mechanical failures in either aircraft, Pennlive reported<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The helicopter pilots, Cpl. Bryce J. Corman and Trooper Jason Mills, have since been discharged from the hospital. <\/p>\n
