INorthwest: Planes Lands On I-90

“Just drove by the plane that made the emergency landing on I-90 during the fireworks show last night,” writes Christa Hazel on her Facebook page. “A crane was moving it onto a tow truck. I just love the orange tag on the plane as if we need to know that it is illegally parked on the road.” Coeur d’Alene Press story here .

Question: Do you admire the pilot for being able to land his plane on Interstate 90 after the fireworks show? Or wonder why he couldn’t enjoy the fireworks on the lakeshore, like tens of thousands of others?
