Launceston Examiner website shows picture of wreckage of a small acft with rego VH-ZMC visible. CASA Acft register shows the type as a "Moni" registered to an East Launceston Address.

Thanks Blackburn.

Tasdevil, I think you'll find the incident happened turning left after takeoff from 14, south of the airfield.

Yes Prado I was there when it happened, what I was trying to say (very badly) was that it crashed half way between the threshold of 32L & Evandale. Was in a rush when i typed it and had other things going on at the same time. My apologies.
