EMT interviewed said it was apparent from looking at the patient's upper body what the end result would be but as per training, she + another EMT continued CPR until the passenger could be offloaded. One would conclude injuries were from upper body in slipstream with consequent injuries.

Report on AvHerald is flaps 5 used due to control ability concerns so higher than normal landing speed. Interesting to hear some passengers say rougher than normal landing while others say very smooth. All in one's perception. It was good to hear that many passengers had a frantic response while probably more experienced passengers kept telling them to calm down, we are going to get through this okay. Importance of experienced travelers assisting cabin crew (only 3 of them) to calm those having a panic attack.
