Officials with the Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board are expected to begin examining the crash site in the shoreline town of Clinton on Sunday.
Clinton police identified the pilot as 62-year-old Shirley Onacilla of Jersey City. Officials say she was treated for minor bruises and abrasions at a hospital and released. No one else was aboard.
