NASA WB‑57F Canberra belly‑lands at Ellington Field after landing‑gear failure; crew uninjured
A NASA WB‑57F high‑altitude research aircraft performed a gear‑up emergency landing at Ellington Field near Houston, sliding on its belly and emitting flames along the runway. The crew — part of NASA's three‑aircraft WB‑57 fleet — were uninjured, and NASA says a full investigation into the landing‑gear failure is underway.
