The wreckage of two light aircraft that went missing on Sunday between Limpopo and Gauteng has now been found south-west of Tzaneen.

The exact location of the crash site has not yet been revealed but Rescue SA spokesperson Johnny Smit says rescue teams are on the scene.

The two Albatross aircraft disappeared after an air show. At least 13 people are believed to have been on board the planes, including several children.

Both planes were discovered by a police helicopter, after weather allowed for search and rescue efforts to continue.
