One person has been killed and another seriously injured after a light aircraft crash landed in central Victoria.
The aircraft, a gyrocopter, is believed to have crashed on a private property on the corner of Snipey Rd and Murchison-Goulburn Weir Rd at around 7.15am on Sunday.
The plane’s yet-to-be-identified pilot died at the scene while the passenger was transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
It is understood the two people who flew the gyrocopter over Goulburn Weir before got into trouble and crashed.
The aircraft is a type of helicopter that does not use an engine to turn the rotor, but instead uses airflow from beneath the cabin to provide upward propulsion.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
Anyone with information or dashcam footage of the incident is urged to contact CrimeStoppers.
More to come.
