"If you flex or bend a piece of metal long and often enough, it will fail".

This aircraft - whilst with Nile Safari operated KRT-JUB many many times with no fuel in JUB and therefore would have been subject to perhaps more than it's fair share of overweight landings (and high G spiral approach and departures). Not saying that was the cause but I agree with screwballburling.
