A small plane pilot and his passenger managed to emergency land on Waldo Road in Gainesville after experiencing a problem in flight.
The pilot, Walter Amon, 61, and his unidentified passenger are expected to recover fully from non-life-threatening injuries after the rough crash landing.
"It still amazes me that the pilot was able to land this plane in the middle of a major highway for Gainesville and not hit any other cars, people, pedestrians, or buildings in the area," Lt. Tscharna Senn with the Gainesville Police Department said.
