By Staff reporter

A small vintage biplane crashed at a NSW airport, landing upside down on the runway on Saturday.

The pilot and passenger, a man and a woman in their 50s, escaped without significant injuries after the plane crash-landed at Shellharbour Airport.

Firefighters were called to the airport in the state’s Illawarra region after 70 litres of plane fuel had spilled onto the runway, Nine News reported.

The passenger was later taken to Shellharbour Hospital in a stable condition.
