'Experienced Pilot' Makes Emergency Landing On Freeway

A plane en route to John Wayne Airport in Orange County, Calif., was losing altitude so the pilot decided to take the freeway.

When the plane's engine failed, 25-year-old Izzy Slod guided the Beech Bonanza under a 20-foot overpass and used State Route 55 in Costa Mesa, Calif., as a landing strip.
