Emergency landing at Riviera
Riviera Country Club, Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, California
Still from the original video
Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, the course that will host golf at the 2028 Olympics. On 2 May 2025 a Cessna 172 on its way into Santa Monica lost engine power over the west side, and the pilot glided it down onto a fairway here with no engine and no second attempt. Three people were on board and none of them were hurt. Golfers on the hole stood and watched it come in over the trees and roll to a stop on the grass, which is why the thing was filmed from about four angles at once.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
