Light aircraft makes emergency landing on Mona Vale Golf Course

This is not the first time a plane crash incident has been observed on a golf course. In 2025, earlier in August, Turbine Traveller shared a video of a plane crash at Mona Vale Golf Course in Sydney, Australia.

Reportedly, a Piper Cherokee light plane needed an emergency landing and crashed in the northern part of Sydney. There were reportedly two people on the plane; however, they managed to escape the incident.

Sharing the news, Turbine Traveller wrote:

"Two people miraculously escaped after a Piper Cherokee light plane made an emergency landing crashing onto Mona Vale Golf Course in Sydney’s north."

A golf club member, Callum Nicholls, was at the venue practicing his game with his girlfriend, who was a doctor. He shared the details about the incident and said (via Manly Observer):

"The plane came in really low over the top of our heads, and there was no propeller movement. It didn’t even sound like an engine was on. He banked around the corner here to obviously try and come down the 15th, but lost altitude coming down, skidded across and just ended up there. “We were sort of first on the scene. My girlfriend’s a doctor, and gave them medical attention. They were both okay. One had slight lacerations to the side of his face. We were a bit shocked, but we were kind of stoked we couldn’t finish our round because we weren’t playing great.”

As per the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, people involved in the incident at Mona Vale Golf Course were a flight instructor and a student, and it happened because of engine trouble.
