Four people have been killed after two planes collided midair in the Australian state of Victoria, police have confirmed.
The incident involving the two twin-engine light aircraft took place near Mangalore airport north of Melbourne.
A police spokesman said it was possible that the two pilots may not have seen each other due to cloud cover.
Both planes had two people on board and had taken off from different airports, police said.
Both were engaged in flight training when the crash occurred, 9 News reported.
One plane was a Piper-Seminole aircraft operated by flying school Moorabbin Aviation Services, the news organisation said, with the second plane operated from the Peninsula Aero Club at Tyabb.
