One person was seriously injured after a small plane crashed on a private airstrip in central Alberta.
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada says the two-seater was flying Tuesday from Wetaskiwin to Linden, a town about 100 kilometres northeast of Calgary.
The agency says the plane was approaching the rural airstrip when its fixed landing gear hit a fence and flipped.
RCMP say two 82-year-old men were on board.
One person was airlifted to hospital in serious condition and the other was taken by ground ambulance with minor injuries.
