Plane Carted Away after Braden Airpark Crash

Video taken of the crashed plane being carted away at Braden Airpark in Forks Township Thursday.

A pilot sustained minor injuries Thursday when his plane crashed near Forks Township's Braden AirPark.

The crash happened around 4:55 p.m. near Uhler Road, said Charles Everett, executive director of Lehigh Valley International Airport, which oversees Braden.

Everett said the plane "landed long," meaning that it was unable to stop before the runway ended. The pilot declined medical attention.

Here is video of the plane being carted away back to the airpark.
