Pilot Anastasia Vournas told a videographer at the scene that her engine sputtered and stopped after she left the Santa Paula Airport, in Ventura County.
Vournas said she could not return to the airport over mountains, hills and freeways, but that the watermelon patch provided a good alternative.
It was "a little bumpy on the watermelons, but I did what I was trained," she said.
