Winds from a strong storm cell that passed over the Chicago area managed to briefly tip an Air Choice One Cessna 208 bound for Burlington onto its wing on Sunday.

FAA Spokesperson Tony Molinaro tells KBUR that the plane was in line for takeoff when the storm approached. A strong wind gust managed to tip the plane momentarily before it resettled upright.

No injuries were reported.

Flights at O’Hare were grounded for a time Sunday due to the strong weather conditions.
