Police are investigating, along with the Australian Transport Safety Bureau.
It said the two aircraft had been involved in a formation flight of four that was returning to land at Wedderburn Airport when the collision happened.
"One of the aircraft involved in the collision landed safety but the other aircraft collided with terrain and its pilot was fatally injured," a statement said.
It's the second crash at the airport in a year.
