The pilot received minor injuries, said a medical officer from a primary health centre in Shelgaon who had gone to the accident spot.
Vaibhav Shah, financial in-charge at the Academy of Carver Aviation, said the incident took place during a training session. ”Since ours is a pilot training academy, the exact cause of the crash landing will be ascertained after an investigation,” he said.
The pilot is safe. It was a skilful and safe crash landing by the pilot, he said.
