Light twin prop-job (ZS-JGW) made a “nice” but very expensive wheels up landing, luckily no fire, no injuries

. Aircraft did not leave the runway the damage was light although expensive (both props bend).
According to another aviation forum, aircraft abort first landing and pilot “forgot” landing gear on second approach

.
A SAA A319 might have had front row seats to the whole episode and had to abort their landing.
