Plane Forced to Land on Clear Lake Road By Marge Barton light plane, rented from Alpine Aviation of Provo, made a forced landing on Clear Lake Road last Friday afternoon after encountering engine problems. Larry Fillmore of Provo was enroute from Cedar City to Provo at about 4:30 p.m. when the plane, a Turbo Cherokee Arrow, lost its oil pressure. Fillmore shut off the engine and radioed Flight Service in Salt Lake City that he was in trouble. He told them he was 17 miles south of Delta and was going to land on a dirt road. Flight Service in turn notified the Cedar City Highway Patrol dispatcher who called the Millard County Sheriffs office. Local police officers were immediately dispatched to the vicinity and searched the area for the downed plane. Deputy Sheriff Ross Johnson said, although he did not see the plane land, he located it only about five minutes after it landed. The pilot had made a safe powerless landing on the road and was not injured nor was there any damage to the aircraft. A passerby, whose name was not obtained by officers, had stopped to offer aid and was on the scene when Johnson arrived. Other officers involved in the search were UHP Trooper Rick Nielson, Della City Police Officer Bob Dckkcr. Fillmore City Police Chief Glen Quarnberg, and Fillmore City Police Officer Clinton Penney.
