A student pilot on a solo training flight crash-landed a Cessna aircraft at Parafield Airport in Adelaide after a failed touch-and-go manoeuvre.

The trainee pilot escaped approximately 30 seconds before the aircraft was completely destroyed by fire, with emergency services containing the blaze despite windy conditions.
