injesting several cubic yards of sod while at full power

Well, not full power.

He was landing...

Still... yeah - the engine is probably trashed.

Seems he couldn't get it stopped - whether due to water on the runway, too short a runway, who knows...

He broke my F-16!!!

Viewing his exhaust shows alot of flame still coming out. He couldn't have been in burner so I'm guessing FOD ingestion.

Look at the slide show, he did go to full power after leaving the runway, had full up elevator as well, he (or she) was trying to power out of it.
