“It appeared that the small aircraft was unable to stop within the runway distance,” San Bernardino County Fire Department officials told KTLA. “The plane struck a soil based embankment, which acts as a safety feature at the end of the runway, and overturned. Both occupants were seat belted. No fire or any other injuries were reported.”
