Two people are being treated for minor injuries at Cairns Base Hospital after a light aircraft crashed on a remote island in the Great Barrier Reef.
Queensland Ambulance Service Acting Assistant Commissioner Brina Keating said a call for help was received around 7:30 this morning after a plane taking off from Lizard Island's runway collided with trees and flipped.
She said nine adults and one 14-year-old girl were on board, with one adult sustaining a minor head injury and another a minor arm injury.
