A plane registered to Roush Fenway Racing was split in half Tuesday at the airport in Oshkosh, Wis.

The Raytheon Premier jet pancaked on to the runway and broke in half and no flames or smoke were seen, according to the aviation news website AVweb.com.

Jason McDowell, an aviation photographer who was at the airport, tweeted a photo of team co-owner Jack Roush exiting the plane with a bloody face. AVweb.com reported there were two people on the plane and both were standing outside the plane afterward.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether Roush was flying the plane.

Jack Roush nearly lost his life while piloting a small plane near Troy, Ala., on his 60th birthday on April 19, 2002. He hit a power line and landed upside down in eight feet of water. The longtime NASCAR team owner was not breathing when he was rescued and sustained a broken leg, a collapsed lung and head injuries.
