Man killed in ultralight crash
A MAN aged in his 50s died instantly when an ultralight plane crashed into a north Victorian paddock early this evening.
Police said a passing plane spotted the ultralight upside down in a paddock on Fosters Rd, Rochester at around 5.45pm (AEST).
"At this stage it looks like the plane was attempting a landing in the paddock when it clipped overhead wires," a police spokesman said.
