Pensacola Small Plane Pilot Makes Amazing Emergency I-10 Landing

We now know the pilot of the small plane that made an emergency landing Monday morning on I-10 east in Pensacola.

The flight instructor is 21-year-old Emily Shelton.

The student she was flying with was on his first ever lesson. Thankfully, the two walked away without injuries.

Dramatic video captured by truck driver Eric Jordan shows Shelton fly the plane under overhead sign structure on I-10 before landing on the highway.

Air Traffic Control audio reveals Shelton -- who has logged approximately 1,300 hours of total flight time -- reported the smell of burning oil in the cockpit, which led to the emergency landing.
