Despite perfect weather conditions, the aircraft has made contact with the rock wall / breakwater at the waters edge. This is well short of the threshold. The impact has taken the tail off and the aircraft has finished up off the runway with the engines detaching too. Thankfully all passengers and crew appear to have made it out of the wreckage. Reason for the undershoot yet to be determined.
