    It’s not as bad as its reputation would suggest, and is close to some great roads and scenery.
    Gateway to the Flinders etc.

    If you watch it on a full screen , its luck that the "prop " of the plane doing laps! didn't cut into the cockpit of the stationary plane ..

    That's the aircraft equivalent of "keeping your foot in it" way past the point where one should have stopped...

    Yes.

    My guess is that the torque that occurs when you apply power in a single-engine aircraft from standstill pulled that one to the left and being on grass they were unable to counter it with rudder and / or brake as expected and simply ploughed into the other stationary aircraft. Too much power was applied too quickly.

    The odd thing is that the pilot kept the power on and proceeded to chew up the other aircraft way past the point it should have been obvious to cut the throttle.
    If he /she had done that as soon as the collision was imminent it would have been a minor bingle.

    Thought the same know different to nailing a car in the wet , torque steer into another ,
    i think the pilot paniced and just froze
