Most of the plane's damage was on the underbelly of the craft when

So this genius compounded the problem of running out of fuel with
forgetting to retract his landing gear for the emergency landing...
Fortunately for him, Darwin's attempt to remove him from the
population pool failed.

Careful. Failing to retract the landing gear wouldn't have meant a grassy
belly.

Before nominating the pilot for near-Darwin awards, maybe it would be good
to wait for an investigation into the cause(s).
