The Portugese news item said "skidded off runway during heavy rain".
Looking at the pictures and the state of the aircraft you'd almost think he just turned the wrong way in tropical rainstorm zero-zero visibility, and rolled down the embankment, with very little damage to the aircraft.
And now that the photo is around the net anyway, here's another one for the caption competition.
"The plane?...... The plane is fine, just a bit wet...... No, it's fine! I just want to know how to get reimbursed for my uniform jacket. It's RUINED!"
