Briscoe Field was the site of an emergency plane landing on Friday evening, Oct. 12, 2012.

According to 11 Alive News, a King Air 300 plane, carrying only a pilot, was able to land safely at the airport in Lawrenceville after the landing gear jammed. Reports indicate that the pilot was able to safely, manually lower the gear, however he was unaware if this maneuver worked because the "gear down" light did not activate.
