The Piper Cherokee was captured flopping towards the ground during an emergency landing, sending parts of the aircraft flying as it hit the green at around 2pm local time.
Onlookers rushed to check the status of the instructor and student on board, who were both able to escape the wreckage relatively unharmed.
Both men, thought to be in their 50s, had minor injuries and were treated on the scene by paramedics.

Flight records show the plane had left Camden and was destined for Wollangong before making the sudden landing.
Pictures of the crashed jet show its starboard or right wing severely damaged, while the landing gear appeared to have come off.
Keanu Turnewitsch was enjoying a round of golf with his friend when he saw a ‘nice big shadow’ cast over the green, before hearing a crunching sound.
He told ABC news: ‘All the ambulances and everything started coming past and sirens for 20, 30 minutes.’
Another witness said the aircraft ‘just fell from the sky’, adding: ‘It was crazy, we literally just heard this noise, and then all of a sudden it went bang.’
It comes after a light aircraft was found crashed in a field in Staffordshire.
The plane, with a broken a wing and tail was discovered in Cotes Heath near Stone on August 8.
No injuries had been reported, with the plane having made an emergency landing.
A spokesperson for the Air Accidents Investigation Branch said: ‘An accident involving a light aircraft was reported to the AAIB on 8 August.
‘An investigation has been launched, and we have begun making enquiries.’
