Small plane landing on a golf course.

THIS is the terrifying moment a plane crash lands in front of shocked golfers at the iconic Riviera Country Club.

Dramatic footage captured the aircraft hurtling towards the golf course before chaotically bouncing along the busy fairway.

The small plane was seen coming in to land on a fairway at the course which is located in the affluent Pacific Palisades neighbourhood in California.

Three people were on board at the time as the pilot tried to land on the iconic course.

The first attempt to touch down saw the plane come in at a high speed before completely aborting the landing.

Its wheels were just inches off the ground when the pilot veered up and continued to soar ahead.

As the plane encroached on the golf course, the individual recording realized it was now heading towards the green where a group of players was located.

In a frantic rush to avoid being hit, the camera operator jumped out of the way as the plane barrelled in just a few dozen feet away from them.

The pilot was forced to touch the grass once again as the plane bounced off the top of a mound next to a bunker.

It then crashed into the pavement which separated the course from the clubhouse.

The huge impact left debris flying across the fairway.

The pilot continued to wrestle with the out of control aircraft as it bounced several more times across the pristine course.

It was finally grounded as the plane skidded across the course and rounded another mound before it came to a stop next to a tee box.

A team of golfers were seen watching on in shock as they went to check on the passengers.

First responders rushed to golf course to check on those on board just after 1pm local time, according to CBS.

No one was injured, the Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed.

The exact landing destination for the plane is unclear, but officials have confirmed it was redirected from Santa Monica Airport earlier in the day.

This isn’t the first time a round of golf has been disrupted by an incoming plane.

Last August, footage captured the moment a plane narrowly misses a golfer who lining up to take his tee shot.

A plane dramatically plummets past him and slams into a nearby shop.

Plumes of smoke could be seen billowing from the small blue and white Piper PA28 plane as the traumatised golfer watches on in horror.

Back in January 2024, a plane crash at a golf course resulted in two men being killed who were on board.
