GAINESBORO, Tenn. (WTVF) — An single-engine airplane made an emergency landing near the Jackson County/Smith County line on Tuesday morning.
According to Jackson County officials, the call came in right before 9 a.m. The aircraft was traveling to Ohio from Murfreesboro when it experienced engine problems.
Jackson County 911 dispatchers were able to use GPS coordinates to locate the aircraft’s approximate location.
The plane was found just off of Salt Lick Creek Road and both the pilot and passenger were not injured.
North Nashville lost a passionate advocate and historian with the passing of Lorenzo Washington. I had the pleasure to get to know him while working on a story and left with a wealth of information and appreciation for how Jefferson Street shaped the sound of Music City. Aaron Cantrell shows us how Lorenzo will forever be part of that.
