Looks like these pilots mastered "The Art of the Crash". Good Lord they wipe out the rear of the plane and then wait around (for what?) to evacuate the plane. These guys should never fly professionally again.

What an amazing machine to take that severe beating and still get most of the people back alive. That must be the first 777 hull loss??? Anyone?

The BA 777 at LHR was a hull loss. The SFO crash was the first 777 crash with loss of life, I believe.

You are correct canoehead. A very impressive for the 1100+ built and still being built. However the -200 series is begining to see the end of its life and at least one from Singapore has been scrapped. I wonder if any other airframe has had that sort of safety record. Very impressive machine.

The Flight Attendants need major credit for getting mostly everyone out of that mess.

^ Indeed! Extremely well done for what must have been a group of very frightened 20-something kids.

Pilots, not so much.
