Emergency services were alerted to the crash about 11am when the wreckage of the Robin44 aircraft was found in steep and rugged bushland at Grattai, about 25km south-west of Mudgee.
The pilot, a 48-year-old man from the local area, died at the scene.
A crime scene was established and has been preserved overnight; it will be examined by NSW Police Force air crash investigators and officials from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau tomorrow.
It’s believed the man was spraying weeds.
Police will be preparing a report for the information of the Coroner.
