Wheeling and Prospect Heights companies were dispatched for an aircraft standby at the Chicago Executive Airport Sunday morning where a small plane had landed and the front gear had collapsed. The plane with one soul on board ended up in the grass. The pilot was uninjured and outside when firefighters arrived. After plugging a small fuel leak, the plane was removed and the airport was reopened.
