JACKSONVILLE, Fla — No one was hurt in a plane crash that happened at Jacksonville Executive at Craig Airport Wednesday afternoon, according to the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department.
JFRD crews helped clean up a fuel leak from the plane, along with the city's biohazard unit. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, an Embraer EMB-500 slid into the grass after landing on Runway 32 around 2:50 p.m. Wednesday. According to JFRD, two people were on board at the time.
According to the FAA's registry records, the plane is currently registered to Executive Aviation Investors Inc. out of Sunrise, Florida. The company took over ownership of the plane on Dec. 31, 2018. Before that, Fast Forward Aviation LLC out of La Jolla, California owned the plane.
JFRD says the fuel leak has been mitigated and crews were cleaning up the scene for a few hours after the incident.
