Five people have made a lucky escape after a seaplane incident in Queensland this morning.

 

Those on board the light aircraft were mostly unharmed after the plane crashed while attempting to land, 9News understands.

 

Paramedics were called to Hamilton Island after reports of a seaplane incident just after 9am.

Some things have to be double checked. Only people who work for CASA or it's predecessors can land wheels up.  Nev
