Bhopal: A Cessna 152 twin-seater aircraft crash landed outside Indore Airport, just 100 metres short of the boundary wall. An aerodrome source said that the pilot was forced to land the aircraft due to engine failure.
Chandan Nagar Police Thana Incharge Shivpal Singh Kushwah told The Hindu, that the aircraft owned by the Madhya Pradesh Flying Club (MPFC) was flown by Assistant Pilot Instructor Captain Anand Vengurlekar along with a trainee pilot named Arjun. “The field was soggy after the harvest, so the landing was safe. Anand and Arjun did not get hurt” said Mr. Kushwah.
According to an informed source aerodrome staff scaled the boundary wall with a ladder and brought the two occupants to safety.
