Two men have had a lucky escape after their light aircraft crash landed near Lichfield.
The pair suffered cuts and bruises after they landed upside down in a field near Yeatsall Lane in Abbots Bromley shortly before 5.55pm today (July 10).
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “It’s understood the two men managed to get out of the aircraft and walk to a nearby farmhouse for help, then went back to the aircraft where the crews found them.
“They had head lacerations and bruises, both were immobilised with the use of spinal boards and both were taken to the University Hospital of North Staffordshire; one by land ambulance, the other by air ambulance.”
