And now we have yet another MD11 prang,big surprise
Sorry, did we miss something? I thought we merely had a 'heavy landing' here. Nothing more. Few bits bent. Nothing a good pop rivet gun and plenty of duct tape wouldn't fix.
'Prang?'- not yet! Prangs break things, heavy landings just bend them. There is a difference.
The poor, unloved MD11. I actually feel sorry for it! But there is something not quite right with it. All they did wrong was put the wing further back than it should have been. That tailplane angle is bizarre.
