No injuries were reported after a banner plane crashed into the water in the Ponce Inlet area in Volusia County on Monday afternoon, officials said.
Video posted to the Town of Ponce Inlet’s Facebook shows what looks like the small plane attempting to land in the water near Disappearing Island, a popular sandbar that attracts boaters.
The Federal Aviation Administration told News 6 that the Piper PA-12 crashed into the waters near Ponce Inlet around 1 p.m. with only a single pilot onboard.
Officials said the Ponce Inlet Fire Rescue responded to the crash along with the U.S. Coast Guard and the Volusia County Beach Patrol.
The FAA is investigating the crash.
