This is an incorrect use of the verb "to crash". Do not confuse "to crash" with the verb "to crush" which is the correct verb to use in this example. "To crush" means to deform with a compressing force, for example: "I crushed the tomato in my hand, and the juice went on my clothes". A vehicle cannot be "crashed" between two others, on the other hand it can "crash into" another car.
This sentence uses the verb "to crash" correctly. In this example, "to crash" means to fall or descend suddenly in value. It is common in financial contexts to use this term when referring to a sudden (and often unexpected) drop in prices. Example: I predict that shares in Microtosh will crash next week. In the announcement, the pilot uses the verb "to crash" in a different sense, meaning to physically collide or hit something (the earth in this case).
This is an incorrect use of the verb "to crash". Do not confuse "to crash" with the verb "to smash" (or simply "to break") which are better choices for this sentence in this example. "To smash" means to break violently into pieces.
This sentence uses the verb "to crash" correctly, in same way as it is used in the pilot's announcement. The pilot says "I've only crashed two planes in my life", which means that he has been the pilot of two planes which have fallen from the sky and hit the ground (or sea) violently. The verb "to crash" describes a violent collision, such as those between cars or a plane and the earth.
This is an incorrect use of the verb "to crash" because it needs to be followed by the preposition "into", to crash (a car) INTO (a wall). Two cars can "crash", however when the verb is used in the active sense, the verb must be followed by a preposition such as "into".
