A pilot is missing after an irrigation plane failed to return to an airfield near Bathurst.
The pilot failed to return to the Upper Turon airfield after taking off at 2pm on Friday, with air and ground crews searching for the plane until 11pm, police say.
The search resumed at first light on Saturday.
Irrigation plane? Hmmmm. TV reports that it was spreading fertiliser. Search efforts are being hampered by fog.
