A recreational plane landed safely on a Sydney beach with three people aboard including a baby on Wednesday after its single engine failed, officials said.
The Tecnam P2008 aircraft landed without incident on Collaroy Beach in northern Sydney early afternoon, a police statement said.
The 25-year-old male pilot, a 28-year-old female passenger and a 1-year-old boy were not injured, police said.
The pilot made a forced landing following a reported engine failure, said the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, a crash investigator.
