As far as I could see the first contact was the power lines, the second was the last light stand at the fence, the third was the fuselage contacting the antenna array and the gear contacting the snow/ground.

If hey had I expect I would have seen TSB guys there marking it with orange paint.
Guess we'll know for sure when they plot the data.

Looking away from the runway, standing just below the powerlines that were clipped.

Thanks for the photos. They do seem to show first contact with the wires.

I was just going by this map posted in AvHerald: Accident: Air Canada A320 at Halifax on Mar 29th 2015, touched down short of runway
