It’s a miraculous story.
Police say a pilot from Elizabethtown-Kitley was able to walk away with just minor injuries after a small plane crash.
Lanark County OPP say they responded to the incident at the Russ Beach Airport, just east of Smiths Falls, shortly after 9 p.m. Saturday night.
A pilot had been conducting a training flight, simulating repeated takeoff and landing maneuvers, when the Cessna 172 lost power and crashed about half a kilometre from the runway.
The pilot, who was flying alone, was able to walk away.
The Transportation Safety Board was notified about the crash.
