The pilot of a light aircraft that crashed at the Kawartha Lakes Municipal Airport in Lindsay on Wednesday night (March 4) was not injured.
At around 9 p.m., Kawartha Lakes Police, Kawartha Lakes Ontario Provincial Police, Kawartha Lakes Fire and Rescue Service, and Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service responded to a report of a single-engine Cessna that had crashed and was found lying on its roof just off the runway.
The initial investigation found the pilot lost control of the aircraft during landing, causing the tail to lift and flip the plane onto its roof.
The pilot, who was able to exit the plane and report the crash, was transported to Ross Memorial Hospital as a precaution.
There were no other injuries or damage. The aircraft has been removed from the runway, and no significant delays to airport operations are expected.
Police say the Transportation Safety Board of Canada has been notified of the incident.
