Still. Gotta be scary given the fate of the Air France accident. I can imagine what was going through everyone's mind.

$5 says in a week a couple of pax will have 'emotional damage' and there will be a suit.

$5 also says the suit will be thrown out in a month or two.

I would love to see pics of the RJ that took the damage. It looks like they went thru that nasty red at some point.

I just looked at Flightaware again and it shows the radar returns in a different position. Not much of a change but it is definitely different.
