A Piper aircraft made an emergency landing on River Road, near Interstate 40, in Duplin County, North Carolina, on the afternoon of December 11.
The plane, en-route from Maryland to Wilmington, was forced to land in emergency after it lost oil pressure. Authorities said the pilot was trying to land at Wallace Airport but could not make it to there and landed on a road.
The pilot, who was the only one aboard, remained uninjured. He managed to push the aircraft off the road immediately after landing.
The plane’s right wing sustained minor damage.
