: 11:50 CA time; Miss America just had an engine failure and
: deadsticked it onto the runway. Went off into the dirt an
: d ground looped on its nose. No word on pilot. Assume he's
: ok.

I am sure the pilot is shaken and slightly stirred. However it and any groundloop is not considered a "crash".
A deadstick landing is something that these guys and gals can pull off and make it look easy. Reno is a showcase of piloting skill, please describe it as it is, not the way channel 4 would.
