Sightseeing Plane Engine Explodes
The engine of a float plane blew up while in the skies over Taupo this afternoon. Members of the public traveling near Lake Taupo telephoned police and reported smoke billowing from the tail of the plane.
The plane landed roughly on the water at Tokaanu Bay, however, no injuries were reported.
