King credited the pilot, Justin Krom, a Cirrus employee, for keeping his cool and landing the airplane on the highway, which he called “the only smart place to put it down.”
Keppers said Krom landed in the northbound lanes of Highway 61. No one was injured.
“Here’s the ridiculous part,” King said. “They land safely, and the traffic starts honking at them. As if an airplane would be on the highway if it was working properly.”
