Plane flying from Austin TX to Honduras crashes and breaks in half, and everyone survives

A private plane carrying at least six US passengers from Austin, TX crashed on the small runway at Toncontin airport in Honduras's capital, Tegucigalpa. The plane split in half, but miraculously nobody was seriously injured.

According to the BBC:

The Gulfstream G200 aircraft was on a private flight from Austin, Texas, when it skidded off the runway and into a ditch at Toncontin International Airport.

Surrounded by mountains and with a very short runway, the Toncontin airport is considered one of the world's most treacherous.
