In this image made from video made available by the U.S. Coast Guard, a small plane which had run out of fuel lands in the ocean several miles off Hawaii's coast on Friday, Oct. 7, 2011. The pilot was rescued by Coast Guard crews who had flown alongside and coached him on crash landing in the choppy seas. The 65-year-old man, who was not seriously injured, was flying solo from Monterey, Calif., when he radioed authorities Friday afternoon that he was running low on fuel about 500 miles from his destination of Hilo, Hawaii, the Coast Guard said. The cities are about 2,300 miles apart. (AP Photo/U.S. Coast Guard)
