SV 777 punctured wing
 
Hi guys,

I saw this video today: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=70d_1205377058

Can anyone shed light on the incident?

Hi mutt,

It's filmed from inside the plane as it lands in RUH . You can see from the window that the right wing has some damage. Something punched through a section of the trailing edge, and there is some liquid most likely hydrolic fluid spilling out

Liveleak works fine in Riyadh - don't have satellite web-access.

Copy of my post on R&N -

Happened a few days ago - great footage.

Appears to be a debonding issue between flap drive hardware and composite structures. Boeing & the NTSB are on their way down. To establish the facts, blur responsibility and protect US business interests.

It is interesting that one of the outboard spoilers appears to be stuck in the up position. Something to do with the damage?
