ONE person is dead after an aerobatic plane crashed and burst into flames in the New South Wales Riverina.
The plane caught fire after crashing near the Aviation Museum at Temora, about 80km from Wagga Wagga, just after 10.30am (AEDT).
"The plane is currently on fire and one person is confirmed deceased in the accident," the ambulance service said.
Police confirmed the small plane had just one occupant, but could not immediately provide further information.
Police said an emergency call was made from Airport Road, Temora.
The fatal crash came half an hour after a light aircraft overturned on a runway at the Old Bar Airstrip near Taree, on the NSW mid north coast.
The ambulance service said the plane came to rest on its roof.
Paramedics treated two occupants who managed to free themselves from the aircraft.
