It was a tragic situation and I'm sorry that people died and careers were ruined. Regardless of circumstances. It was a bad subject and brings up history.

I will erase if you wish.

My intention was not to cast blame or cause hard feelings. Rather it is a technical admiration and amazement of both the strength of the aircraft to survive such a ground obstacle collision, and the pure skill of the pilot to continue flying after such extensive damage.

It's like the F-15 which somehow landed missing a wing. Or the B-17 with the tube sliced through and missing most control surfaces.
