Any truth in the rumour that a ROSSAIR 200 crashed in Faizabad?
Yes.

Anyone with more info please, would like to know.
Havn't heard much apart from no-one hurt and that the aeroplane doesn't look very pretty, it had a nose-gear collapse on landing according to spies in the area.

By coincidence Aviation Assistance had a 200 land at Kabul with the nose-gear partially retracted a few days before. They knew in advance that there was a problem & apparantly made a relatively gentle touch-down. I heard that the damage is limited.
