The Transportation Safety Board has recovered a black box from the site of a plane crash near Sundre last week that killed three people.
Investigators say they’ve ruled out weather as a factor, but will be looking into what role mechanical or human error may have played.
Meanwhile, family and friends are remembering former Hitmen owner Charles Matson, one of the three killed in the crash.
A family spokesman tells CTV it’s been a very difficult weekend. He says they’ve been through a tremendous amount as a family, and Matson was always the quarterback that got everybody through.
The plane, owned by Matson, spiraled to the ground half an hour after taking off from Springbank Airport around 1:00 p.m. Friday.
