No injuries were reported when a twin-engine plane being piloted over a golf course lost its main landing gear as it approached the Ronkonkoma airport before landing on its belly at approximately 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 20, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman said.
The pilot was able to safely navigate the plane to MacArthur, where they were met by fire trucks and ambulances at the scene as a precaution. All parties landed safely.
In all, three ambulances were called to the scene to check on the pilots and passengers, who refused medical attention.
