Two men have escaped with minor injuries after their aircraft crashed in Perthshire.

Tayside Police said initial inquiries indicated the plane suffered from loss of power due to mechanical failure.
The men on board, a pilot and his one passenger, were aged 64 and 57. The aircraft came down at about 1155 BST.
