Just something thet struck me from the photos and diagram shown. The Investigators seem to say the right wingtip struck the RUNWAY and then continued fro 190m before the flip rotation.

Where the aircraft came to rest seems not much more than 190m from the landing threshold??

And given the later survivors accounts of not actually contacting hard surface I wonder if the wing struck softer ground before the threshold...
