NEW GLASGOW, N.S. - An official says a small plane that crashed in Nova Scotia suffered engine trouble during a test flight.
Mike Cunningham of the Transportation Safety Board says the plane had problems not long after takeoff on Monday.
Cunningham says there was a loss of power.
Two people walked away unhurt after the Cessna went down in the woods in Pictou County.
Cunningham says the plane had not gained much altitude and therefore did not have many choices.
He adds that the board will not likely be doing a full-scale investigation.
