I was not aware the damage was that severe.

The left front fender looks okay... No but really, it's really quite amazing how badly the plane was damaged from simply coming in to the landing too slowly (apparently an engine stalled) and brushing the ground. Yikes.

Makes you realize how delicate those huge birds are... considering those fly 12000 ft filled with tons of highly flammable liquids!! :mechbull:

It's Amazing that as many people survived the crash based on these pics. Getting out before the main fires was a Plus for them.
I'm still looking through these for the tail pics. It was supposed to have hit a sea wall, (And broke off), before the fuselage impacted at the airfield.

Imagine the drag force on that for it to tear it off!
