WEST CHESTER, Pa. (AP) - A single-engine plane crash landed in a field in Pennsylvania.

The aircraft was flying from Trenton-Mercer Airport in New Jersey to Gaithersburg, Maryland, when the pilot had a problem with oil pressure and brought the craft down in a field in West Chester on Sunday.

The aircraft avoided traffic and power lines before it clipped a pole and lost a wing.



The pilot was unharmed.

The crash is under investigation.
