No injuries in bad landing at HMB Airport

Coastside emergency personnel were dispatched at 2:30pm this afternoon to respond to a small aircraft "crash" at Half Moon Bay Airport.

The San Mateo County Sheriff’s office reports that the accident was caused by a landing gear failure and that no one was injured.

The Half Moon Bay Review is reporting that the aircraft, "a Yak 3 Russian fighter—could be scene on the side of the runway. Airport workers who declined to be identified said the pilot was a Coastsider."
