Accident or Incident? Not a crash. In fact you could argue it was already on the ground, landed, and only rolling out when a "mechanical" happened. I think the runway there is like 3750' X 70'.


spose the dictionary should be re written "To undergo sudden damage or destruction on impact"

Crash is a term newspapers and TV News uses.
To the FAA and NTSB aircraft don't crash they have accidents and can be destroyed, substantially damaged or maybe it's just an incident where it overran the runway and suffered a gear collapse after going through the perimeter fence.
Also pilots aren't killed but are fatally injured. I guess there is a difference.
