Regarding the screen shots on page 1:

Is it perspective/elevator position, or is there a piece missing from one of the horizontal stabilisers?

If so: debris from failed engine taking out control surfaces?

EDIT: it's most visible on the first, the second has contamination from the impact and light gantries, making it artificially appear that the lower side is longer.
EDIT2: I suspect the length difference is a perspective issue due to the position of the stabilisers on the T-tail. Not sure if this totally accounts for the difference in shape though?
