".......An Airport spokesman said the Russian TU134 flying from the central Asian republic's capital Bishkek, made a hard landing and flipped, A wing and part of the chassis fell off"

TU3 wing separation
Not the first such TU3 accident, almost exactly the same scenario happened in 1971. (ASN Aircraft accident Tupolev 134A YU-AHZ Rijeka Airport (RJK)) This time they were much luckier in the overall outcome.
It appears that just like with the MD11, overloads from a high sink rate touch-down will break the main wing spar rather than collapse the landing gear. Interesting to compare with the BA 777 LHR accident...

I've referred to this occurrence in post #13, but was blamed for that, so you might be next
.
Tu 134 is very demanding to banks at flare height because of low wings and negative dihedral (? if I call this feature correctly?), so only 7 degrees of bank is sufficient for contacting ground with wingtip. Many dozens of similar cases (much less dramatic) happened on T34 when in low visibility pilots saw the runway very late and tried to align aircraft with centerline.
