Biffle was landing at Blue Grass Airport in Lexington, Kentucky when his right landing gear collapsed, causing the plane's wing to hit the ground. Biffle later told ESPN's NASCAR Now that he saw the left wing bank upward and the right wing start throwing off sparks.
"My pilots are purely heroes for maintaining control of the aircraft [and] keeping [it] on the runway," Biffle later tweeted. "If not it wouldn't have been the same outcome."
The runway was closed for about two hours while crews cleaned the debris. No one on the plane was injured, but we'd imagine a few stiff drinks and prayers were in order after that.
