GAINESVILLE, Fla. — An airplane that skid off a runway at Gainesville Regional Airport is under investigation.
Airport officials said the two-engine plane landed just after 11 p.m. Monday and skidded over 1,000 feet into a ditch.
Tropical Storm Colin brought heavy rain Monday throughout Florida. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating to determine what caused the incident, but it is likely heavy rain played a role, said Gainesville Fire Rescue officials.
The pilot and copilot were the only two onboard. No injuries were reported.
The plane was towed Tuesday at about 6 a.m. to a hangar.
