YAK -18 Forced Landing Jacobs Well Airfield QLD

From Courier Mail

No Cookies | The Courier-Mail

A PLANE is believed to have crashed into a field south of Brisbane. Emergency services were called to a field on Gross Rd, Woongoolba, just before 3pm Friday after calls of a light plane crash.
The plane is believed to be a YAK-19 aircraft, which had to make a forced landing.
The crash is reported to have occurred a few hundred metres north of the Jacobs Well airfield.
It is unclear at this stage what has caused the crash.
There were early suggestions the plane may have flipped, and then crashed.
There are reports of damage to the aircraft.
Both occupants of the plane are not injured.

Edit looks like a YAK 18 & NOT A YAK 19
Regards RW
