ABC The pilot walked away uninjured.A light plane has crashed at the Agfest agricultural show at Carrick in Tasmania's north.
There were no passengers on board and the 32-year-old pilot was not injured.
Police say the pilot of the Cessna lost control on landing and the aircraft ploughed through two fences, coming to a stop on its roof.
The accident happened near the exhibitor's car park.
Police say the plane was extensively damaged and is likely to be a write-off.
Sergeant Anthony Roughan says it is not known if pilot error or a problem with the plane caused the crash.
"I'm not an expert in this kind of investigation but certainly that will be a matter for the investigating authorities, we'll be assisting them, but there are some skid marks to indicate that the pilot tried to do everything he could to pull the plane short," he said.
The Civil Aviation Safety Authority and Australian Transport Safety Bureau will investigate the cause of the crash.
