A friend sent me these shots taken by the crane operator.

Interesting. Did I spot the captain in one of them, in a hard hat?

What I found interesting is that the radome and left side of the nose
was damaged. I assume that this was from the bird strikes.

No.

My back channel sources tell me that one of the boats ran into it
during the passenger recovery phase. Also broke one of the cockpit
windows. Neither were damaged during ditching.

I have an excellent series of photo's (photographer unknown) as an
attachment. If anyone can take and set up so group can see let me know
and will e-mail to you.
