A small plane has made a daring emergency landing at the Oakland County International Airport.

The plane began having problems with its front landing gear shortly before noon.

After circling for hours, it finally came in a short time ago.

As it came in, you could see the pilot trying to keep the weight of the plane on the back landing gears.

As soon as the front wheel hit the ground, it folded underneath the aircraft.

Once the plane came to a stop, two people quickly hopped out, in case it caught fire.

Fortunately, everyone appears to be okay.

We're told the plane is part of a flight school that flies out of Oakland County Airport.
