The composite body is
hell for stout. The surviving AC at the Marana AZ crash hit the ground
at more than 600 ft/min vertical speed. No damage.
Dana, that airframe is now a maintanance trainer. It was so badly damaged it
was not repairable...AL
I thought it was basically everything *inside* the actual airframe that
got damaged by the drop, and that the fuselage and wings held together
pretty well.
