BAC 1-11 G-ASJD, 24 August 1964, Tilshead, England.
Landed wheels-up following the inability to release a drag parachute during deep stall testing by the manufacturer.
Was recovered and repaired, going on to fly with British United and British Caledonian until 1971 when it became a military research aircraft (XX105) and flew until 2003, eventually being broken up in 2012.
The 737 accident is quite something, given the pylon mounted engines hanging below the fuselage. I'm assuming the gear wasn't down here either - we'll see.
