Witness Statement added: -
"One of the passengers estimated the height at the time of impact with the birds at around 50 feet using other aircraft visible from his window. The airplane touched down, got back into the air and touched down again. After the airplane came to a stand still, it took a short while until fire engines arrived and started to foam the aircraft. Passengers were advised by cabin crew to remain in their seats, the left main landing gear was still intact. Then the evacuation was initiated, the slides deployed, when the airplane suddenly rolled to the left and the left main gear strut came through the wing."
If the above is true, what is the explanation for te severe scraping on the underside of the plane as seen in some previous pictures ?
