  iF I read the article correctly, the crew ejected AFTER the plane landed on the runway. Tire punctured on the landing (I dun see how the tire can get punctured in mid flight!)
  
  But how did the plane stop? Maybe its got something to do with skidding off the runway, and without the landing gear there the friction must be pretty big, probably stopped the plane for them.
  
  And the crew probably tot the plane would flip or crash or something so they eject first, tok later. . .
  
  Hope the crash ain't too bad.. .
