Governor's Plane Door Opens In Flight

Last updated on Thursday, May 3, 2007

(INDIANAPOLIS) - A small plane carrying Governor Mitch Daniels was forced to make an emergency landing in Gary.

The aircraft's door opened shortly after takeoff. A spokeswoman says the problem was quickly fixed and the governor was never in danger.

Daniels was traveling from Gary to Terre Haute when the co-pilot's door somehow became unlatched. The plane was able to take off once the door was closed and latched.
