Abbreviated and from the Brisbane Times

A pilot and his dog are unharmed after a dramatic landing at a Queensland airport.

The right side landing gear failed on an ultra-light plane as it came in to land at Mackay Airport about 3.40pm Thursday. The body of the Beechcraft Bonanza A36 made contact with the runway and skidded to a halt but the man in his 40s and his dog were both safe, a police spokesman said.




Given that this is the picture they've used for the article, with the tag line A Beechcraft Bonanza A36 similar to this one crash landed at Mackay Airport., is there any actual chance that the Australian one in question was a turbine with tip tanks, or is this more clueless journalism?
