Gotta love reporting.

Didn't know a non-retractible could do a "belly-landing".

Clearly in error. The correct journalism term is “belly-flop landing.”

The one comment "I wonder if airplanes like belly rubs as much as I do" is a future news reporter.

I'm surprised Scott Pasmore didn't at least get the chance to chime-in and change "Belly" to "Hard".

He's a pilot with a TTX or something.

Or at the very least "Hard followed quickly by belly" landing

There was no tarmac, so it had to be a belly landing. Or a crash. What about the flight plan? Maybe it was hacked.

...Which always occurs after the engine "stalls out!"
