For the second time in as many days, a small plane has landed on a California road near San Diego. Late last night, a plane carrying four landed on Interstate 15 in Escondido. No one on the road or on board the plane was hurt in the incident, the AP reports, though a pickup truck suffered some minor damage after it bumped into a wing. After landing around 11:30pm, the 1968 Piper plane was pushed to the shoulder. On Saturday, another plane landed on Route 67 in Santee, 10News.com reports. (More small plane stories.)
