A small plane was forced to make an emergency landing on a Long Island beach Monday after experiencing engine problems, the Federal Aviation Administration said.

The single-engine Cessna 150L touched down about 2:20 p.m. at Point Lookout in Hempstead — about nine miles east of John F. Kennedy International Airport, officials said.

Two people were on board the craft. There were no reports of any injuries.

The plane had taken off from Stevensville airport in Maryland and was en route to Long Island MacArthur Airport in Islip when it was forced to land, records show.

According to FAA records the plane is registered in Ronkonkoma.
