Narrative:
Sterna Cargo flight 9302, an Airbus A300B4-203F, suffered a landing incident at Recife-Guararapes International Airport, Brazil.
The aircraft apparently came to rest off the runway with the nose resting on the ground. It's unclear if the nose landing gear had collapsed or if it had failed to extend.
