Small plane crash forces airport to close for 2 hours

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) - A small plane crash caused a Florida airport to shut down for nearly two hours.

The Panama City News Herald reports that a Cessna 185 flipped over after landing Friday morning at Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. The pilot was not injured.

Airport officials say a crane was used to clear the plane from the runway.

A Delta flight from Atlanta had to be diverted to Tallahassee for a landing.
