Incident for Trislander ZK-LGF

Great Barrier Airlines red Trislander ZK-LGF was involved in a news making incident at the Pauanui Airstrip on the Coromandel Peninsula on the evening of 22 October.  The attached news article makes it out to be a scene of chaos and carnage but the photo in the article hardly depicts such a scene.

From its location one can assume it has aborted a takeoff on heading westbound and veered left off the main grass strip.
