Remarks: What a sight to see, a Cessna 180 on Interstate 80 westbound just past the Sparks Boulevard overpass after having an engine failure that forced the pilot to land there despite the RNO airport just being a few miles away. Thankfully the pilot and three passengers were able to escape injury and no cars were hit with and with the only damage to the plane a damaged tail wheel. Although due to obvious spectacle a few fender-benders did occur after the incident with no injuries.

What a great capture!! I thought I recognized the cars belonging to the state troopers. Looks like one is preparing to draw his weapon!! :)
