According the the episode Locke came to see members of the O6 a month before his death. He died a few days before Jack and Ben came to see him at the funeral home, i'd assume.
I think Locke was able to travel to and from the island, much like Ben was able to during his reign..or as Ki first suggested, perhaps he had to turn the wheel in order to move the island, and subsequently was unablt to return..
When you say 'died in the plane crash', do you mean the originasl 815 plane crash or something else?
