A single-engine propeller plane crash-landed at Rapid City Regional Airport, South Dakota, on the night of February 6.
The incident happened when the pilot and his wife were flying from Wyoming to Wisconsin.
Authorities said the aircraft’s electrical system malfunctioned around 80 miles from Rapid City. The pilot and his wife then used their iPads to navigate to the airport in the dark.
Landing gear could not be deployed due to the electrical system failure and the plane had to land on its belly. Fire officials said sparks were shooting from the fuselage as the plane skidded on the runway.
Both occupants of the plane remained unharmed. Their identities have not yet been released.
The incident is under investigation.
