I heard at around 5pm on channel 7 of a light home-made aircraft crash near Campbelltown, where they had a picture of what looked like a Piper warrior in a field with its left wing missing. I haven't heard anything on www.smh.com.au, nor any other website or channel 10 news. I didn't get to watch 7 news so didn't see anything further.

Anyone have any details about this?

May have been at The Oaks??? Heard Rescue 23 out that way conducting a beacon search late this morning...


Cheers,

It was a low wing thing with an ultralight rego. Care factor on the rego wasn't much, but it did have its right wing missing and a very ordinary looking prop.

You can tell by my very informative description that i wasn't watching the report too closely, ha, I only saw a brief glimpse of the crash

Me either.
First thing I thought of with the wing missing and the plane on its wheels was that email circulating of the stunt plane that loses its wing during flight but then makes a perfect 3 point landing.
