That's some quality CQ/QCQ material right there...

Meh. I think all our USAF Buffs have wrinkly skin, and we're going to fly those another 5 decades!

N543US is destroyed. The visible damage suggests that the center fuel tank or outboard portions of the wing bladders are damaged if the crown structure is buckled at the R3 fuselage section. Not to worry though. There are only 196 displaced passengers with lack of crew and aircraft available for immediate recovery so disaster is averted. Also, social media has been...well, trumped out, shall we say.
