Stunt plane crashes

Two passengers in their 40s escaped injury after a stunt plane flipped while attempting to land at Springbank Airport June 14.

Early reports from investigators point to strong winds as the likely explanation for why the 1943 Boeing 75 biplane turned upside down as it landed.
The two occupants, an instructor and the aircraft owner, were practising stunt circuits at the time of the incident and had been in the air about 40 minutes.
