  1. Any landing that you can walk away from is a good one.

  2. As it is still skidding along, I think the walking away part is yet to be decided

  3. The crew probably did better than the poor bastards in this one...

  4. Looks like a split second after impact on the right wing tip and nose. The rest of the bomber is still off the ground. You can see the shadow of the fuselage behind the number three engine. It is still moving fast and on fire in the bomb bay. My guess is anyone who survived has already bailed out.
