A light aircraft crashed at White Cliffs Aerodrome, NSW. The pilot died in the crash.
According to an Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) spokesperson...the crash involved a microlight plane, similar to a powered hang glider.
"As such the ATSB is not investigating this accident, as the ATSB does not investigate sport aviation accidents unless there is the potential to identify wider safety issues," the spokesperson said.
