Nashua Plane Crash: A pilot was taken to the hospital with injuries Wednesday after a small plane crashed into a residential neighbourhood in southern New Hampshire, authorities said.
Emergency crews found the aircraft upside down in a snow bank in the parking lot of a wooded condominium complex in Nashua on Wednesday afternoon.
Police said the pilot was the only person on board and was the only person injured. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.

Aerial video from NBC10 Boston showed damage to the roof of one of the condos near the crash site.
Florida plane crash
Earlier on December 10, a small plane crashed on a busy United States highway, resulting in a brief traffic jam. According to the report, the aircraft crashed and landed on a busy Florida highway, slamming into a car and causing massive traffic chaos. The single-engine Beechcraft 55, carrying two 27-year-olds, was forced to make an emergency landing on Interstate 95 near Orlando after the pilot reported engine trouble, as per media reports.
The aircraft came down directly onto a Toyota Camry stuck in traffic, leaving the 57-year-old driver with minor injuries. She was taken to a hospital, while the pilot and the passenger were miraculously unharmed during the deadly accident.
