An ultra-light plane crashes in Fresno and the pilot walks away uninjured.

The plane went down during a test flight in Fresno at Milburn across of Alluvial near the Sky Park.

The pilot managed to set the plane down in a field along the San Joaquin River after the plane lost power and the landing gear collapsed.

Firefighters and other emergency crews arrived quickly.

“No injuries, so were very happy to report no one was injured in the accident and it  really didn’t cause a whole lot of damage other than the fact that we had a very large response out here,” Chuck Tobias, with the Fresno Fire Department said.

The name of the pilot has not been released.
