Power line strike in South Oz

Sadly one fatality, and two injured with serious burns - one of them a member of the public who reportedly rushed to the plane to extricate the victims. Some media report the aircraft as a Cessna. There appears to be insufficient clear debris to get a glimpse of the registration.
