Delta Air Lines 717 nose gear collapses after landing at Charlotte-Douglas International Airport. According to Delta, two pilots, three flight attendants and 96 passengers evacuated safely.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The landing gear did not collapse after landing. The front landing gear failed to deploy, which eventually forced the pilots to land without the use of the front gear.

Major Brian Shul’s selfie in the cockpit of his #Lockheed #SR71 will, in my humble opinion, go down as the epitome of a cockpit selfie. There are similar ones of U-2 pilots but the round canopy bow’s reflection is no match to that of the #Blackbird’s iconic windows. I don’t think anyone will ever top this. #Habub #aviation #Skunkworks
