If I was on an airplane that ended up like that after trying to take off, I'd consider myself to have been in a crash...

Reportedly it was Flt 1702 to FLL on N113UW.

Airline spokeperson says plane did go airborne, for some reason pilot aborted, nose wheel collapsed when they touched back down.

If the plane did go airborne and the pilot aborted, there's a good chance he may be losing his job very soon.

It was dark by the time I could get over there. Only place to see anything was from the parking garage, which is too far away in total darkness. I knew that by morning it would have been towed off the field
