If This Weren't So Ironic, It Would Be Funny. While Motorists Routinely Run Red Lights, Planes Making Emergency Landings Obey The Law.

On the evening of 09-23-2015, Piper PA-28-140, N43241, with student pilot and instructor aboard, made an emergency landing on Red Hill Avenue in Irvine, California.  The landing was successful, and no one was hurt in the incident.

While the cause of the impromptu arrival was not reported, the "light" hearted part of the video is that the Piper did not run the red signal (note the green light in the video), as many drivers, unfortunately, do.

Thanks to Commander John Flores (Retired) for the heads-up on this story.
