The pilot of a plane died Tuesday night when his aircraft crashed approximately 18 kilometres southwest of Southport.
Manitoba RCMP and emergency crews responded to the scene just before 8:30 p.m. and found a crop-dusting plane had crashed into a field.
The pilot, a 54-year-old man from Morden, was pronounced deceased on scene.
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada has been deployed to the site to investigate.
