I just took a look on Google Earth, and I don’t know if that’s FM 546 in the closeup of the plane and car. Looks way too narrow. Also, the fence along 546 is completely different, and I can’t find where those houses are. Doesn’t matter, I suppose, but to me that road looks more like a residential street.

There is no excuse to locate an airport with a runway end anywhere near a road, and there is no excuse to build any kind of road that close to a runway.
Such a shitshow would never be allowed anywhere else in ICAO.

Holy staged photo, Batman!

The regulators should never have allowed them to extend that runway.

Also, it was NOT an emergency landing because there is no such thing.
If the engine was out it was a forced landing. If the engine was running it was a precautionary landing. In either case, this started as a landing and ended as a crash.

Busy highway? Doesn’t look like it. That’s the media for you.

Were you looking at McKinney National Airport?
Try Aero Country Airport instead.

I’m not sure which road it is though.

"The small plane was going 'way too fast to stop by the end of the runway,' according to a witness" How fortunate their reporter just happened to be able to find a witness who knew exactly how fast a Lancair could be going and still manage to stop.
