Oh, come on. A little bondo, a fresh coat of paint and that baby will be as good as new. Well, with a new fuselage. And wings. And stuff.

On a serious side, if that thing pranged and they got 293 people off it alive, I have a very serious new respect for the designers. Wow.

Looking at the other plane that was waiting to take off, it’s a miracle that the crashed plane didn’t slide into the jet that was waiting.

Yep, using the WWII terminology it certainly looked like the pilot "pranged" it but good.
