Don’t worry buddy I will help you here to get the information about the Auster Aircraft Ltd, IIIF, VH-MBA, 'Kalimna Park' Galore report issued by the Australian Government.

As the aircraft touched down, the pilot applied power and raised the aircraft nose immediately.

The aircraft became airborne at low airspeed, climbed to about 50 ft AGL before commencing a turn to the left.

In the turn, the aircraft side slipped and lost altitude. The left wingtip impacted the ground and the aircraft began rotating to the left. As the nose impacted the ground, a fire began.

The fuselage then struck the ground in a level attitude, with the aircraft traveling rearwards, tracking about 220 M, before coming to rest.

The aircraft was destroyed by fire and the pilot received fatal injuries.
