A bit of a scare for travellers and the pilot of a small plane, after the plane made an emergency landing late Friday afternoon on Highway 11. It happened in Perry Township, just south of Burk’s Falls. Almaguin Highlands OPP were called to the scene. Investigators determined the aircraft was experiencing mechanical failure. No injuries were reported as a result of the incident. A partial lane of the highway had to be closed while crews worked to remove the plane from the roadway. It’s unclear how many people were on board at the time of the landing. Ontario 511 is reporting the highway along with the north shoulder have since been cleared.
