Dash 7 Forced landing Margarita Island

[ARINC]

Just saw a quick clip on BBC News 24 of what looked to be a Dash 7 Making a forced landing on Margarita Island Venezuela. Looked like the Starboard main leg not extended.

40 Pax all ok.

Edit..

I just checked Airliners net for a pic, it was a Dash 7 ! Doh...

thanks still that it was a relativly safe landing.

Looks like the pilots first touched down with the left mlg, then the right mlg collapsed. Aircraft should be repairable.
