The student pilot who landed a single-engine plane on
Interstate 90 near Bozeman Thursday evening was forced
to land the plane after it ran out of fuel, officials
said Friday.

Campbell, who was flying alone, was uninjured. The only
obvious damage to the plane was a broken propeller,

Vetter said her husband planned Friday to replace the
broken propeller and fly the plane out, using I-90 as a
runway, if the plane was otherwise undamaged.

Repairs to a broken propeller could be between $8,000
and $10,000, she said.

I was under the impression that anytime you have a prop strike you had to do a
crank shaft inspection before the engine could be used.  Would he have a
temporary ferry certificate?
