Long Island man accused of flying plane too low

A Long Island man has been arrested on a reckless endangerment charge after police say he flew his plane too low in the vicinity of a high school.

Police say Control Tower personnel identified him to the Nassau County Air Bureau police after he landed his plane at Republic Airport in Farmingdale.

Police say he was arrested at his home Saturday with assistance from the Federal Aviation Administration. He was charged with first-degree reckless endangerment. A phone number for Capus went unanswered Saturday.
