Narrative:
An active emergency beacon was detected earlier today, and a downed light plane was located in the Pohangina Valley on the western side of the Ruahines. Location about 30km north of Palmerton North: Takapari Road, not far from Pohangina Base.

Owing to the nature of the terrain a rescue helicopter was not able to land at the scene, but a crewman and a medic were dropped off nearby and made their way to the accident site.
Both occupants, a flying instructor and student, were found to have been seriously injured and were airlifted to hospital
