A Vans RV-12 went missing on the 15 June over the Coromandel Peninsula. After a search the crash site was discovered and the pilot was found to be deceased. This morning two light aircraft collided in Masterton on final approach to Hood airport. Both pilots were killed. One of the aircraft was a Skydive Wellington plane which was returning from dropping off parachutes. No information has yet been published on the aircraft types. Condolences to the families of all.
