KENNESAW, Ga. (AP) — A small plane with two people on board made an emergency landing on a highway in the northern Atlanta suburbs Monday morning.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the Italian-made Sky Arrow 600 Sport was headed for the Cobb County Airport-McCollum Field at 11:20 a.m. when the pilot reported smoke in the cockpit and engine failure. Authorities identified the pilot as 44-year-old Glenn Michael Davidson of Canton and the passenger as 29-year-old Mallory D. Zackery of Jonesboro.
Sgt. Dana Pierce with the Cobb County police says the pilot landed on U.S. Highway 41, then taxied the plane into a nearby subdivision. No injuries were reported.
The aircraft is registered to Kennesaw-based Hansen Air Group, according to an FAA database. Company officials did not immediately return a call for comment.
