Two people and a dog made an emergency landing in Amarillo.

According to the Amarillo Fire Department, a Piper PA-32RT-300  lost electrical power.

The pilot was able to call the air traffic control tower at Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport on his cell phone.

He was unsure if the landing gear was down.

The pilot initially requested permission to fly by the tower so they could check.

But the fire department was able to see it from the runway.

The plane landed safely around 11:40 a.m.
