Dear Peter.
Why did you call it a crash?

I saw it as a controlled emrgencylanding, where crew knew what was going
to happen.
To me, a crash is an ucontrolable contact to the ground?

Am i wrong?

Once the landing gear collapsed, it became an uncontrollable contact with
the ground. An Emergency landing is just that, a landing resulting from an
emergency. If the aircraft is damaged, I think it's safe to call it a
crash.
