A small Cessna aircraft makes an emergency landing on a highway east of Edmonton, according to RCMP. The occupants are able to land the plane safely, and there appears to be no damage to the aircraft.
RCMP say the reason the plane must land on the highway is under investigation. The reports from different outlets largely focus on the safe outcome and the initial response, while not providing further details about the circumstances leading up to the landing.
At this stage, outlets do not identify the pilot or passengers, and they do not specify the cause of the emergency, the time of day, or any disruptions to traffic. Both accounts emphasize that investigators are trying to determine why the aircraft was forced to make the emergency landing rather than landing at an airport.
