It happened Saturday around 10 a.m. at the Ocean City Municipal Airport in Cape May County.
The FAA confirmed that a Cessna C140 aircraft bounced hard and veered off Runway 24 into a marshy area during the landing attempt. A photo from the scene shows the nose of the plane grounded as the body juts upward.
Officials said the wind was a factor.
Both passengers completely avoided injury, officials said.
An investigation is underway.
