The San Jose Fire Department arrived to a park in San Jose where a small plane landed Saturday afternoon.

Around 3 p.m. a single-seat plane crash-landed at a residential park less than half a mile from Reid Hillview Airport in East San Jose.

Reid Hillview airport told NBC Bay Area that the pilot lost power during takeoff, forcing him to land the plane. He took down a small tree as he landed at the park, but luckily the pilot was uninjured.
This is my local field, about 2.5 miles away, I see stuff going in and out of there all the time, including the local fire suppression flights which are based there when needed.
