A post-war Ercoupe 415 made an emergency landing on Chicago's Lake Shore Drive on July 28. No one injured, and the aircraft looks pretty good to me.

News report:
Ercoupes are known for stability; some can land with the pilot's hands completely off the yoke.
Why, that pilot probably just pointed the nose toward Lake Shore Drive, decided to trim his nails, and relaxed as the little critter made a safe landing - maybe even near a Starbucks. Latte's for everyone.
