There was a LU jet engaged the approach end RHAG and dragged it out of the ground and sped down the runway with the cables spinning around the tail and cutting it off. Ended up ner the end with the tail on the ground and the engines dangling down.

The airframe sat in a hangar till an airframe was found that had suffered severe front end damage and a cut and shut job united the front of the first with the rear of the second and it returned to service.
