According to the NZ Herald a light aircraft had an accident at Thames airfield this morning; fortunately it doesn't sound like there were any injuries. Anyone have any more info?

As mean as it may be, I'm going to laugh if it's another CTC plane 'in the poo'.

It seems it was a Tecnam P96 from the local aero club, specifically this one: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Tecnam-P-96-Golf/1332889/L
