No injuries were reported after the plane landed on U.S. Highway 41 near Fon du Lac County Airport shortly before 8 p.m., authorities said.
"A person called and said that there was smoke as the plane came down," said Andy Dothone, a state patrol dispatcher.
The highway was closed in both directions as authorities worked to move the plane from the highway, but vehicles were eventually able to pass on the shoulder, he said.
The Oshkosh Northwestern
newspaper reported that a man and his son were flying the plane to an air show in Oshkosh.Source
