Shocking images of the crashed plane have emerged online, showing it stuck in a wheat field next to the village. The pictures show that the right wing of the aircraft has been bent in the impact as well as the tail of the vehicle being twisted dramatically to the right.
The picture also shows the propeller of the plane clogged with wheat as it was landing and the canopy of the twin-seat aircraft open. Reportedly, the pilot was out and walking around after the crash as people came to help.
Locals also report that emergency services are restricting access to the Fife village and turning cars back towards Cluny. Police Scotland confirm that emergency services remain at the scene to clear the area.
It is not currently clear what happened to cause the plane to make an emergency landing.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Officers were called to reports of a light aircraft crashing in a field near Kinglassie at around 10.55am on Monday, 1 August, 2022.
“There have been no reported injuries.
“Emergency services are at the scene to clear the area.”
