A single-engine Cessna made a soft crash-landing at Tupelo Regional Airport in Tupelo, Mississippi, shortly before 6:30 p.m. on February 3.
The plane was returning from Starkville to Tupelo when it developed some landing gear issues.
According to Tupelo Fire Chief Thomas Walker, the aircraft’s back landing gear deployed normally but front gear did not come down. It kept skidding on its nose for about 30 yards before coming to halt in the middle of runway.
The pilot, who was the only one aboard, remained unharmed.
The accident is being investigated.
