  "textContent": "A small plane made a safe landing at Montgomery County Airpark in Gaithersburg on Friday after the pilot reported possible trouble with the aircraft’s landing gear, according to the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service.\n\nSpokesperson Pete Piringer said first responders were alerted shortly after 11 a.m. to a report of a plane experiencing landing gear issues. Crews staged at the airpark while the pilot circled overhead.\n\nThe plane touched down around 11:45 a.m. with its landing gear intact, Piringer said. No injuries were reported.\n\nRoad and air traffic in the area experienced delays but were expected to return to normal as operations resumed.\n\nA small plane en route from Ocean City, New Jersey, to Montgomery County Airpark crashed earlier this month in Bowie, killing all three people aboard.",
