THE wreckage of the light plane that crashed into the ocean, killing its pilot, has been salvaged off Sydney’s coast.
A spokesman for NSW Police told AAP that the wreckage of the two-seater ultralight plane was on its way to Bankstown Airport, where it would be investigated by the authorities.
He said the salvage operation, which started at about 7am (AEST) today was completed sometime by 11am.
The plane crashed into the the sea off Curl Curl beach shortly after sending out a mayday alert about 10.15am yesterday.
It disappeared off the radar shortly afterwards.
The passenger, a 32-year-old man, managed to swim to the surface and was helped ashore by surfers, lifesavers, police and shocked locals.
But the pilot Gary Malane, a 60-year-old man from Bonnet Bay in southern Sydney, was killed in the crash.

His body was later retrieved from the wreckage by divers.
“We did everything within our powers,” said Chief Inspector Colin Green, who was one of the first on the scene.
Two local surf lifesavers also tried reach the pilot, while other members of the public assisted the passenger on the shore, he said.
Superintendent Doreen Cruickshank said the plane appeared to get into difficulty as it was flying north across the beach.
A spokesman for the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) said it would not carry out an investigation into the crash because the aircraft was registered as recreational.
“NSW Police is investigating (the incident) with assistance from investigators from Recreational Aviation Australia,” he told AAP.
