An Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) spokesperson said the organisation was gathering further information into the collision.
“A landing Extra EA300 aerobatic aircraft is reported to have come into contact with a Guimbal Cabri light helicopter, which was preparing to take-off,” they said.
“The ATSB will request reports from the pilots of both aircraft before determining whether to conduct a transport safety investigation.
“We do not have confirmation of the level of damage to either aircraft at this point.”
