NEW PORT RICHEY (970 WFLA) -- The amphibious plane in which baseball star Roy Halladay died has been pulled out of the water near Anclote Key.
The National Transportation Safety Board will examine the wreckage of the Icon A-5, as well as data recorders recovered from the aircraft.
Investigator Noreen Price says they want to see any photos or videos made of the accident or of Halladay's flying before the crash took place. The website TMZ Sports had video from boaters who said the plane was diving repeatedly and erratically before Tuesday afternoon's crash. Price wouldn't comment on statements that suggested Halladay was "hotdogging" or showing off before the accident.
Price says the plane experienced a "high energy impact" when it crashed in four feet of water, even though much of the plane is still intact.
Price says Halladay's logbook showed he had about 700 flight hours.
