Medevac flight makes emergency 'belly landing' at northern Alberta airport


Four people aboard a medevac plane forced to execute a "belly landing" at the High Level Airport on Wednesday night were unharmed during the rough landing. Pilots execute belly landings — also known as gear-up landings — when landing gear doesn't fully extend due to mechanical malfunction. Mechanical issues with the plane were reported to crews at High Level Airport shortly after 5 p.m. Mechanical issues with the landing gear forced the plane to make an emergency landing. "They came in and did their belly landing, and emergency crews were ready."
