Well done to the pilot and the person on the radio offering advice for him all the way through the incident. A "small" jet was sent up to take a look at the visible damaged so no need for a "tower fly past" and as far as i know from the plan over the radio the pilot did not plan to do any bounce on the runway.
all handled very professional by the crew and airline.
The intention for recovery from the aircraft when on the ground was to let small groups of Pax off evenly to prevent any more damage to the aircraft.
