Or did I just miss it?


What is there to say? FedEx has had a bunch of similar MD-11
incidents and crashes (Since 1990, just FedEx MD-11s: Subic Bay:
a hull loss and tail strike*2; Memphis: tail strike; Anchorage:
tail strike*2; Newark: hull loss). The MD-11 is said to be very
pitch sensitive on landing, and the video of this crash seems to
indicate that.
