CAMDENTON - A a twin-engine airplane at Camdenton Memorial Lake Airport had an issue with its landing gear as it landed at the airport.
The Mid-County Fire Protection District was called to the Camdenton airport on Monday after a plane had an issue with its landing gear. When firemen arrived, the pane was sitting on the runway on its belly. There had been a pilot and one occupant in the plane and neither were injured.
The plane had a minor fuel leak which was contained after firemen arrived at the scene. MDCFPD used rescue air bags and cribbing to lift the aircraft so a wrecker company could place straps under it. The plane was then lifted and removed from the runway.
The runway was cleaned and the runway was reopened after the plane was removed.
