Light plane lands in lake at Sydney's Liverpool Golf Club
Emergency crews are responding after the aircraft crashed in the water near the 10th hole at Liverpool Golf Course at Lansvale just before 1.50pm on Thursday.
No one is believed to have been injured in the incident.
The golf course is a short distance from Bankstown Airport.

Yer a cheeky bugger, Trent.
I have a friend in the upholstery detailing business out Bankstown way.
Shouldn't be too costly, because the fabric had been soaked immediately after the event.
Anyway, how does one 'land' in a lake?

Red pegs - Lateral Water Hazard
Ah, 'tis but a chip and a putt from there.
Has Jonesy been making you take it all the way back?
Drop a ball outside the water hazard within two club-lengths of and not nearer the hole than (i) the point where the original ball last crossed the margin of the water hazard or (ii) a point on the opposite margin of the water hazard equidistant from the hole (Rule 26-1 c).

Have some great shots from the other side of the lake but the site won't let me upload - not a lot of places to set down & a better outcome than attempting to turn back
that said the golf cliché count is up...
birdie... not quite an eagle....take (another) drop.....under par.....

Looking at that report, I was gratified to be reminded of the ATSB's thoroughness.
After reporting that the cause of the unscheduled alighting was due to 'engine failure', it concludes with ..
"As part of the investigation, the pilot will be interviewed".
Right!
