Coff,
your diagnosis of us both is correct. Keyboard dyslexia !
The story of the airframe 'mods' in the pic from Thorney as best I can recall.
It was a co-pilots landing and the a/c got away from him before the captain could react. The wing struck the runway and the number four prop did like wise. Parts of the blade penetrated the fuselage narrowly missing the loadmaster. I am sure someone out there can put more flesh on these bare bones.
