Video should be in the upper right hand corner with a still pic of it on the runway.


I witnessed it from the Denver Jet Center. First time I saw something like this in person. And it was right in front of us. Both pilots walked away.

Now that is a bad day! Glad it worked out.
Years ago I was single pilot in the B100, doing Jepps and I barely noticed a C210 on short final. Next thing I hear is a very loud scrapping sound. He landed gear up right in front of me. Closed the runway, turned into a huge deal, had to use taxi way for takeoff. Well right after the guy gears up. He shuts down everything and walks right past me, and this guy was in serious shock, like requiring medical attention. That really got me attention....no where near as much as when the pax showed up. They took one look at me and actually asked me if I was old enough to fly this thing. I said sure, I flew it hear. Well then what about that crashed airplane on the runway? No problem, we are using the taxi way......y'all want to go or not? Never forget that day.
