Australian Search and Rescue says there will be no investigation into yesterday's crash of a home-built plane in upper south-east South Australia because the incident did not involve a registered aircraft.
The elderly couple on board suffered minor injuries and were flown to Horsham hospital last night by a medical helicopter which had been called in from Victoria.
The plane came down in a barley crop north of Tintinara, after its canopy shattered, causing the pilot to lose control.
It flipped onto its roof after landing.
Marcus Ashby, who together with another searcher found the plane, says the couple was lucky to escape with minor injuries.
