A plane carrying at least 60 passengers has crashed on the tarmac at Perth Airport.
The Cobham Aviation plane collided with the structure as it was preparing to take off around 2.20pm.
The aircraft is thought to be an Avro regional jet, an updated version of the British Aerospace 146 that first flew in 1981.
The West Australian has reported that passengers said the brakes on the jet failed as it was approaching the terminal and it rolled and crashed into a lighting structure.
“Emergency services are onsite, however there are no injuries to passengers or crew,” said Perth Airport in a statement.
“This incident has not impacted any other operations or services at Perth Airport”. Perth Airport said.
“None of the 62 passengers or four crew on board were injured,” the airline said.
