A Cessna with an electrical problem landed safely at the Boca Raton Airport just before 8 a.m. Monday, while Boca Raton Fire Rescue stood by for a possible crash.
The airport control tower alerted fire crews around 7:40 a.m. that the plane was having trouble, possibly with an alternator that was not working. The concern was that the aircraft could land with no electrical power at all, a situation officials described as uncommon and not ideal.
Fire Rescue sent a large response team to the airport. Drivers on Airport Road may have seen the trucks heading to the scene.
The plane did not lose power. It landed and taxied to an area of the airport set aside for emergency response. Both people on board got out without injuries reported.
