“#New details emerge in fatal Queens seaplane crash<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n The three people aboard the seaplane that crashed into a pier in Queens, \u2014 killing one \u2014 were on their way home from an afternoon lunch in Maine, a friend told The Post Monday.<\/p>\n

The pilot, Joe Oppedisano, \u201cwas going up to Maine for lunch with friends of his,\u201d before the fatal Sunday crash near the Throgs Neck Bridge in Whitestone, the close pal said outside Oppedisano\u2019s waterfront home on Riverside Drive.<\/p>\n

Oppedisano was in the single-engine Cessna 182 with his friend Jose and the pal\u2019s \u201cwife or girlfriend Maggie,\u201d said the man, who did not want to be identified.<\/p>\n

Police said passenger Maggie O\u2019Neill, 61, was killed when the seaplane slammed into the pier at around 3 p.m. at Powells Cove Boulevard and 158th Street \u2013 just blocks away from Oppedisano\u2019s home.<\/p>\n

The family friend claimed that Oppedisano had already remotely opened the door of the private hangar in the back of his home where he stored the plane before the wreck.<\/p>\n

Oppedisano \u201copened the garage with the remote and we don\u2019t know, maybe the throttle got stuck when he was turning around on the water,\u201d the friend said, adding, that officials \u201cdon\u2019t know for sure yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both Oppedisano,\u00a0who owns Il Bacco Italian restaurant in Little Neck, and the other man aboard the plane were injured in the crash.<\/p>\n

Another pal of Oppedisano\u2019s said Sunday that the pilot \u201cwas going to be OK.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Federal Aviation Administration could not immedia<\/a>tely confirm Monday that the seaplane was returning from Maine before the crash.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
