Landed this morning at Brussel Airport in Belgium after a testflight with the Mooney. I was testing my new panel. While taxiing to the stand I saw this jet stranded along my path. It collapsed it's landinggear I think.

As you can see, the engines are on the ground.

LOL I dont know whether you have seen it before, but last time when I was flying around Perpignan an AI piper landed really hard, bounced like a crazy, then like magic disappeared! Those crazy French pilots!

I was at an airport once, and this ai piper was doing touch and gos.  Every time he landed, he hit really hard, bounced up ten feet, and came back down again.

Just yesterday I was flying a Cessna Citation into Orlando International. I touch down, turn off the runway and get clearance to taxi to the gate. Seeing as I had to cross the runway to get there, I get a call from the tower to hold position for an inbound 747. So I'm sitting there minding my own business as the jumbo comes in. He turns off right into the taxiway where I am and stops nose to nose to me. Then the idiot in the tower gives him permission to proceed and.....CRUNCH! :-[
