The crash occurred at about 6 p.m., said Honolulu Fire Department spokesman Capt. Richard Soo.
Firefighters and police respond to a plane crash at 4747 Analii Street early tonight. Both the pilot and the passenger were taken to the hospital.
Soo said the two were not seriously injured.
The plane crashed into the yard of a residence at 4747 Anali'i Street off Kalaniana'ole Highway near Kalani High School.
Eye witnesses said the plane appeared to have swerved to avoid a group of children playing in Waialae Iki Park, and then crashed.
The houseowner called for help, a fire dispatcher said, but it was not known if anyone in the home was injured.
The plane was heading for town, witnesses said.
More details to come.
