This has two images. I could look for size compliant version and merge them together (here's just the 350px ones merged for reference):

But I'm not sure how well that works?

I am not sure how clear the landing part is.

[up] Those don't really show both the plane landing & that it's a non commerical airline pilot who lands the plane.

Potential caption:

Looks like this pilot's training for emergency landings was just "Screw This, I'm Outta Here!!"

[up] That's pretty good actually thanks to the very obviously dead pilot and her not being in uniform.

Eh, still leaning towards 4 because it shows the "crash landing" portion. Unless [up][up][up] has a screencap of the plane crash-landing?

[up] Just to point out the trope is a play on words so examples where a crash is averted as well as ones where the crash happens but is "softened" to a survivable one both count. The main point is it done by a passagenger or at least a none pilot member of the crew. I just think that's unclear in OP.

Yeah from what I got from the description, the trope is more about the characters trying to land the plane rather than the landing itself

Not quite the safe valley landing you hoped for, eh Tintin?
