I saw that video too. But was it a manned flight? And was it a total loss, or did it slide in on it's belly? I can't remember.

Boundless seems to know more about it than I do, but what I remember was that it was manned, but that it basically ended up doing a belly landing with the pilot not being hurt. The plane didn't look destroyed afterwards, but I have no idea what the actual damages were.

Tom Morgenfeld was the pilot. The aircraft in question was too badly damaged. It was used as a ground instructional airframe before it ended up in the USAF Museum, Dayton, Ohio
