No survivors in light plane crash

The wreckage of a light aircraft which went missing yesterday in northern New South Wales and Southern Queensland has been found.

There are no survivors.

The wreckage was found 55 kilometres north-east of Scone.

The Cessna, with two man and a woman on board, was en-route from Sydney's Bankstown airport to Brisbane's Archerfied Airport.

It was last seen on Sunday after refuelling at Scone in the Upper Hunter.

Mick Spinks from the Australian Maritime Safety Authority says police are now on the scene.

"A search helicopter has located the wreckage of a Cessna 206 aircraft, which was reported missing yesterday," he said.
