CAMBRIDGE, Minn. — The pilot of a light plane was killed coming into the Cambridge airport. The crash was about 11:25 a.m. The plane, a single-engine Beech Bonanza, was crumpled on the ground and appeared to have had an engine fire. The pilot was the only person kon board.Without explanation, Isanti County Sheriff Wayne Beiberlich didn’t release the pilot’s name. It was known, however, the plane was registered to a 41-year-old man from the north St. Paul suburb of Shoreview and had off from the Blaine airport for a 30-mile flight north to Cambridge.
