Have a good look at it. The overhead shot from the rear show the wings main damage caused by the fence posts. no tip damage no twists. They are still attached to the airframe, just ripped open by the fence posts. The rear empanage is straight not twisted to one side so no sudden stop, very little 'canning' or bent up or down so no heavy bounce. All the main damage is caused by the engine tucking under and the airframe going over the top of it. So if it was up on it's wheels and someone driving good chance there would be bugger all damage. This landed it did not "crash" all the main damage seems to be caused during the slide not the initial impact.
