Anyone know anything more about this?

Unusual for an aircraft like a Baron to end up like this.

Local media:Light plane crash at Cowra airport

Emergency services are responding to a light plane crash at the Cowra airport, on the New South Wales central tablelands.

The plane, which was believed to have had two occupants, is suspected to have flipped during take-off at about 2:20pm. Neither occupant was injured.

The airport is popular for flight schools and private light aircraft owners, and is located next to the rural town’s SES and RFS emergency centres. Chifley district police attended the scene, along with local fire crews.

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau has been notified and said it is gathering more information about the incident. Reporters from local media outlets on the scene were told a female passenger in the plane suffered only minor injuries and a male was in severe shock.
