A wind of that magnitude would have been sporty, and there were other special reports from near that time period of gusts to 42.
Ouch. Deja vu... Wasn't there discussion of this just a month or so ago? CAL, MD-11, Hong Kong, ?99?, typhoon? Wing drop, came down with an almighty one-sided thump that either broke a main gear or pushed it clean through the wing?
