>> facial. wishing the best to all of them. thanks so much, alexandra field. a short time ago the u.s. capitol was evacuated when a small aircraft entered the restricted airspace. let's get more now from cnn's erin mcpike. so, erin, very unusual on a saturday. how many people did this impact to evacuate the u.s. capitol? >> reporter: well, fredricka, obviously, not as many as if it were during the week. this happened before in 2005 and 2009 and actually those two times it was the same aircraft and it was a student with a teacher, a pilot teaching that student how to fly. so accidents in those cases. still waiting to hear more details. we fwh we know it was a mooney m-20, a personal civilian used aircraft that enterrd the restricted airspace about 1:35. no communication from the pilot, and so norad scrambled jets when they lost that communication, had to evacuate the supreme court and the u.s. capitol as well as the library of congress.
