A pilot and a rescue dog he was transporting to an animal shelter were killed when a small plane crashed in the snowy woods of the Catskill Mountains, though two other dogs were later found to have survived,

A pilot who was carrying three rescue dogs to Albany was killed Sunday when his single-engine plane crashed in a remote section of the Catskill Mountains outside Windham. Greene County Sheriff Peter Kusminsky said a preliminary investigation suggested Seuk Kim died in the initial crash and not from exposure to freezing temperatures after the plane went down.
