Was recovered and repaired, going on to fly with British United and British Caledonian until 1971 when it became a military research aircraft (XX105) and flew until 2003, eventually being broken up in 2012.
The 737 accident is quite something, given the pylon mounted engines hanging below the fuselage. I'm assuming the gear wasn't down here either - we'll see.
Regardless of the gear configuration, the engines would have most certainly punctuated the underside of the wings during impact - if you can’t work the rest out post impact you’re either a journalist or an aviation enthusiast.
It’s not rocket science as to why the aircraft burnt post impact.
