Airport operations were temporarily halted Saturday morning after a North American SNJ-5 plane tipped onto its nose and injured its pilot.

Tulsa police officers were called to the Richard Lloyd Jones Jr. Airport, 8605 S. Elwood Ave., about 10 a.m. to respond to a single-engine aircraft accident on one of the airport's runways, police said.

The North American SNJ-5 flipped onto its nose while taxiing down runway 31, police said.

Emergency Medical Services Authority responded to the crash, and the plane's pilot received a minor head injury during the accident but was not transported from the scene, police said.

The plane was returned to the hangar after airport management completed an incident report, and the airport returned to normal operations, police said.
