Rough landing! But everyone OK, thankfully.

Hard landing at TIA; no injuries

The landing gear on this Gulfstream jet failed, causing a hard landing. No one on the plane was injured.

The 250TT pilot (making his 15th ever, night landing ) forgot to flare and drove the plane into the concrete. Fortunately the "Auto Briefer" told everyone to fasten their seatbelts just prior to contact. BOOM!
