WOW! that is a shame, coming over from the hangar so probably maintenance folks at the wheel. I've seen this type of accident before when MX had some circuit breakers pulled for hydraulics systems (brakes).

I wonder what speed it was travelling at, to do that amount of damage .....

"OK guys, let's pull it out and take it back to the hangar. Work's not quite finished yet. Forget the overtime as well."

The aircraft was being towed to the terminal from one of the hangars.

Occupants listed as (Zero) in the Av-Safe-net report, also, so it looks like the tractor driver is going to be looking for a new line of work.
Probably a couple levels of supervision as well.

Mechanical or technical malfunction of towing equipment is out of the question, then?

Ladies and gentlemen.

This is your captain speaking. For your convenience we have arranged that you will be disembarking directly into the baggage reclaim hall.
