Thanks for the gen. I hadn't see this previously reported. Good job that the ground situation didn't dictate "destroy in situ!" otherwise it would be a Cat. 5 .......

With luck it looks repairable, but I doubt it will be either quick or cheap. At least the crew/pax got out alive which (for the second time) proves the crash-worthiness of the design.
