What happened
During an approach to Rio de Janeiro-Santos Dumont Airport, an aircraft performed a landing on its fuselage rather than its wheels. Following the impact with the runway, the plane slid for several dozen meters before coming to a complete stop.
While the incident resulted in no fatalities or injuries, the structural damage sustained during the belly landing was severe enough that the aircraft was declared a total loss.
Findings
Investigations into the event concluded that the primary reason for the accident was an operational error by the crew, specifically that they failed to extend the landing gear prior to touchdown.
