was strong enough to knock down three streetlights
According to vg.no the left wing lost the struggle with the streetlights and was "torn off". However this picture suggests that only the left wingtip got sheared off.
Lights still standing apparently.
The really interesting bit of info i got from
www.aftonbladet.se was this:
Med bara några kilometer kvar till flygplatsen Säve i Göteborg slogs flygplanets två datorer ut, samtidigt. Motorn gick på tomgång och kunde inte fås igång igen.
Piloten bedömde att han måste nödlanda och svängde söderut. Han valde att landa på 45:an som är fyrfilig vid Nödinge.

Rough translation:
"With only a few kilometers left to go to Säve (ESGP) in Gothenburg the aircrafts two computers where knocked out, simultaneously. The engine was ideling and could not be reved up again"
Now, I still have a steel cable from the plunger to the carb on the aircraft I fly. What do you think the above quote actually mean?
