Narrative:
A Morgan Aeroworks Cheetah Sierra 200 ultra-light plane crashed into a ferris wheel at a local fair in Old Bar, Taree, NSW.
The ultra-light plane was performing touch-and-goes and had just taken off from Old Bar Heritage Airport (YOBR), NSW. It is reported to have veered to the left during the initial climb and flown into the Ferris Wheel which was located not far from the runway.

The pilot and passenger were not injured in the crash. Two children were trapped on the ferris wheel but were not injured.
