norodnik - I was there and when you see the eventual posting of the videos you'll agree that short of muddy wheels, skidmarks on the grass and in various pants this was nothing short of a miracle recovery.
As an aside I remember seeing an old film of the Victor doing landings complete with jaunty muzac. a gem that stick in my head was
"with her advanced wings and high tail the victor can practically land itself - here demonstrated with the pilot with his hands off the controls......"
I think Teasin' Tina has a soul and had had enough of XH558 hogging all the glory. So she said Bollox to this fast run nonsense and flew anyway
Something just jumped into my head regd. the gust that probably pushed it over Vmu - when she eventually got back on the deck - completely p1ssed BTW -she was past the trees that helped drop the relative windspeed at that point, and reduced weathercocking force too.
