And if so, it also looks as if the Leading Edge is missing?
Of course my eyes are not what they once were...
The airfoil shows "inverted" in the picture of the LH HS; the same form is exhibited in the leading edge of the HS, (on the right).
Further, I believe the rear spar to be intact and that the damage is to the surface structure (ref below, light-blue lines), behind the HS box formed by the fore & aft spars (dark-blue lines). Also, the leading edge is quite visible, in both photographs of the left HS posted earlier.
