a little heartbreaking but no one was hurt

That will buff out.

Good work by all involved. Might have been better if it hadn't come down firsthand, then he would have flown the landing differently... but nothing that could been done there I guess.

It was obvious on final that the nose gear was not fully extended, a shame no one on the ground noticed and warned him to go around. Then even if he couldn't get it fully extended he could have landed nose high and stopped the engines before the props hit the deck.

Checked the Youtube comments. It appears they were aware of the problem but the A-26 doesn't do nose-high landings.

Nose high in an A-26 is a very bad idea... That was a great landing, and I believe they knew about the nose gear not locking problem on approach..
