Laser strike hits Air Canada pilot
OTTAWA—The pilot of an Air Canada jet was left with blurred vision when someone aimed a laser at the aircraft during its approach to Pearson International Airport.
The incident — one of a spate of laser strikes last month involving flights into Pearson — is yet another reminder of the dangers of these devices, federal Transport Minister Marc Garneau told the Star.
The Air Canada Rouge Airbus A319 with 113 passengers onboard was lined up for landing following a flight from Panama City, Panama when it was struck by a green laser.

The aircraft rolled out and taxied to the apron.
The Canadian TSB reported the flight crew consulted with company maintenance, performed a visual inspection of the aircraft and found no anomaly. It was subsequently decided that a hard landing inspection was not required and the aircraft was returned to service under minimum equipment list requirements with the flight data recorder caution light remaining illuminated.

Extrapolating from some commentators here, as long as the aircraft eventually makes contact with the runway at some point and the fuselage remains intact (engines not necessarily) it was a "landing" and not a "crash". Adding modifiers like "hard" to "landing" is just being verbose.

There is a distinction between landing, hard landing, and crash. They're very valid terms.
Tally ho
