Both aircrew members, an instructor pilot and a student pilot, were uninjured.
"We are incredibly grateful both pilots landed safely and without injury," said Col. Gerald Goodfellow, 12th Flying Training Wing commander. "Safety is the crux of our flying mission; we train for these types of contingencies to enable our aircrew to handle emergency situations successfully."
