No injuries are reported after a small airplane from a flying school made an emergency landing on a highway outside of Quebec City.

Quebec provincial police say the airplane landed after losing power during the flight just before noon Saturday.

They say the Cessna was forced to avoid a vehicle on the highway during the landing.

It then skidded across the pavement, hit a snow bank and flipped onto its roof.

Police say the plane's occupants, a teacher and student, were not injured. No vehicles on the ground were damaged.

The national Transportation Safety Board has launched an investigation.
