LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Federal investigators on Saturday were looking into what prompted Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's plane to make an emergency landing, a mishap the governor called "a little adventure" on Twitter.

The chartered jet was about 10 minutes away from landing Friday at the Santa Monica Airport when the pilot reported smoke coming from an instrument panel.

The pilot made a "quick, steep, but safe landing" at 6:23 p.m. at Van Nuys Airport in the San Fernando Valley, Schwarzenegger spokesman Aaron McLear said.

No one was injured.



I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere.
Although with California going broke I wonder why Ahnold is flying a charter instead of commercial?

I believe he uses his own private funds to charter his trips between his home/family in Hollywood to Sacramento. I don't have a link.

I also believe he does not collect his $206,000 annual salary.
