A Russian super passenger jet made a belly landing Sunday in Iceland during a test flight, officials said. The plane landed at the Keflavik Airport Sunday with all its landing gear up. The plane slid off the runway, RIA Novosti said. Five people were aboard the plane, and one man's leg was injured during the evacuation, ITAR-Tass reported. The plane's engine was damaged in the incident, but officials said it will be prepared and the plane will be returned to the test program. The plane, a Suhkoi SuperJet-100, seats 100 people and is the first new Russian passenger plane in 20 years. The jet has had a series of mishaps during the past few years. In May 2012, one of the jets crashed into an Indonesian mountain while performing a demonstration flight. All 45 people on board were killed.
