Hero pilot lands plane with no front wheels as it nose-dives onto the runway

A pilot has been hailed a hero after making an emergency landing in a plane without a front wheel.



Dramatic footage shows the plane coming into land, before it skirts above the runway then skids along on its nose.



Firefighters raced along the runway behind the plane, a Piper 34 Seneca II, and helped get all those on board out within seconds of it touching down.



The six people on board - two pilots and four passengers - all needed treatment for minor injuries.
