Thinking of accidents, did the one that tried to land at SNN without the gear down get repaired and put back into service, or was it scrapped?

If I remember correctly, it lost one engine completely, and damaged 2 of the remaining 3, as well as making some holes in the fuselage as bits flew off prop blades.

Despite the damage, the crew managed to keep it in the air and fly round the circuit with it, and make a second less eventful attempt at landing it.
