CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- It's quite a scene at Yeager Airport with plenty of emergency responders working on a plane crash. However, it is all a drill and not reality.

Emergency responders are spending Saturday morning working under a scenario that a jet from Canada crashed on the runway of Yeager Airport. The drill started shortly after 9am and includes officials from the city of Charleston, Kanawha County and the National Guard.
