The crash was reported about 7:10 a.m. near the 15300 block of West Burbank Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
Firefighters were sent to the scene on a report of a "small aircraft, reportedly Cessna, down in field in Sepulveda basin," an LAFD statement said. "Plane is upside down, no fire, and both occupants have exited ... with undetermined injuries."
