The IV freeway landing was on I-15 heading southbound just north of Rancho
Bernardo Road. The landing was uneventful (except for the being on a
freeway part). They towed the airplane off of the interstate, removed the
wings, and then put the airplane on a trailor and towed it back to CRQ
(Palomar Airport in Carlsbad, CA). I could see several news helicopters out
my office windows covering the event. The local news didn't say much more
than the landing was caused by engine problems. The stories that I saw only
mentioned the fact that it was a homebuilt and didn't focus that aspect.
There was another emergency landing the next day of a PA28-140 on a beach
just north of here (also successful) that eclipsed the IV story.
