No one was hurt after a Piper PA-42 Cheyenne aircraft landed on its belly at the Regina airport on Tuesday.
James Bogusz, president and CEO of the Regina Airport Authority, says officials are unsure what happened to the plane for it to land in such an unusual way.
“We’re not sure how the plane ended up on its belly, but our emergency crews responded immediately to the situation,” Bogusz said. “Fortunately, there are no injuries to the pilot.
“As of 12:00 p.m., our main runway is still closed because the aircraft is currently disabled there.”
According to Bogusz, the landing took place roughly around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday morning.
While the main runway is closed, a secondary runway is being used by planes coming in and out of the city.
“The most recent Air Canada flight, which was inbound from Toronto, was able to use our secondary runway for its noon-hour arrival,” Bogusz said.
The pilot was the only person on board the eight- to 10-seat aircraft.
