A pilot and her passenger escaped unharmed from an incident at the Steinbach North Airport Saturday afternoon. While taxiing near the south end of the runway, the plane went tail over propellor settling in the grass beside the airstrip. EMS, RCMP and Steinbach Fire attended and secured the scene after the call came in just after 1:00 P.M. 

The plane was flown out of the Lyncrest Airport, near Winnipeg. The Cessna did sustain some damage and was righted and towed about an hour later.

Further details from RCMP and Transport Canada are still to come.
