That's the one, Bob.

They messed up the performance calculations for T/O, hit the lights at the far end, damaged the aeroplane very badly, messed up the fuel dump (losing the plot with the CofG), landed hard because of reduced elevator control (hydraulic system damge) and after landing left the runway.

The aeroplane then tipped as people jumped out of the front and some passengers were badly hurt when the slides went vertical.
