A 20-year-old pilot and his two teenage passengers have been identified as the three people killed in a light plane crash in eastern Victoria. The plane was seen circling at Tinamba West in east Gippsland before crashing into a paddock and bursting into flames at about 5.45pm on Saturday, Victoria Police said. The three people onboard were boys aged 15 and 16 from Tongala in central Victoria and the pilot from Tinamba West, police said.
“In communities in regional areas like this, there are a lot of people that know each other and stuff like that, so there’s a significant ripple effect, I understand, going through those communities.” She said it would not be appropriate to speculate on the cause of the crash and the aviation community had also been impacted by the tragedy.
