After the plane's landing gear broke on Wednesday, a skilled pilot landed safely at Conroe North Houston Regional Airport. All three passengers got out of the plane without any injuries. First responders said the pilot did a great job and called it an "exceptional landing."
The problem happened at 11:49 a.m., when the plane's landing gear stopped working, causing the pilot to make an emergency landing. The local fire department shared a video of the aircraft skidding down the runway with one wing scraping against the ground. The aircraft was leaning to one side. Even though things were hazardous, the pilot could safely land the aircraft without hurting anyone or damaging it.
"Thank goodness, none of the three people on board were hurt." "We are grateful to the skilled pilot for the excellent landing and to all the first responders who came quickly," the department said in a statement.
People saw the tense moments before the Conroe North Houston Regional Airport flight. Emergency workers knew about the plane's mechanical problems and were ready to go as it approached the runway.

After the plane landed safely, all three people were checked out immediately and found fine. Firefighters and doctors praised the pilot for staying in charge of the plane during such a dangerous situation. One emergency worker at the scene said, "The pilot's skill and calmness made all the difference in avoiding what could have been a much worse situation."
