    A person who died in a plane crash in Otago was taking part in a club event with dozens of other aviators


    The aircraft encountered trouble yesterday afternoon near Lake Hawea - north of Wanaka.

    Police say a second person was helicoptered to Dunedin Hospital in a critical condition.

    The pair were taking part in the annual Autumn Fly-In for the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.

    President Sue Kronfeld says the association and its members are shocked and deeply upset.
