"Tuesday Jan 2 11:37 AEDT
A pilot walked away unhurt after his light aircraft crashed into a ditch at Melbourne's Moorabbin Airport.
The pilot was the only person aboard a Cessna 172 training aircraft and was performing a touch-and-go circuit when the plane veered into a ditch shortly after 11am (AEDT), Moorabbin Airport manager Phil McConnell told AAP.
The aircraft was substantially damaged.
Fire and ambulance crews rushed to the scene, but the pilot was not injured, Mr McConnell said."
Hot off the press from ninemsn.com.au
Anybody know anything more about this?
I hope its not one of those brand new C-172S with a G1000...
Sounds like a write-off to me.
Cheers
