Funny how there was no Fire after all that damage to the wings!! ( the right one in particular )

mmmm
Lack of fire doesn't mean a thing. I once worked for an operator that had a C210 force land on a golf course near YMMB circa early 1970's. Went well until the pilot swerved to miss some golfers and hit a grassed mound at around 60kts and upended the a/c. Wings split open and the fuel contents (about 1/4 full at the time) spewed onto the ground - no fire though.
