A Dutchess Community College Aviation Science: Pilot program student was forced to make an off-airport landing during a solo flight Monday from Poughkeepsie to Hartford, Connecticut, at approximately 11 a.m.

As the student was working to complete the Federal Aviation Administration’s solo flight time requirements to obtain a private pilot’s license, a sudden mechanical failure occurred, causing her to make an emergency, off-airport landing at a campground in Terryville, Connecticut.

The student did not suffer from any major injuries, and was transported to a Connecticut hospital for monitoring and observation. There were also no injuries suffered by anyone on the ground at that time.
