Ouch, That's got to hurt. It looks like the aircraft will be a write off from the pictures. The ftont third of the aircraft destroyed, left wing damaged and some tail end damage as well.

They may be able to do a cut and attach a new piece but the trouble will be trying to slot it back into the production line.I imagine it will be an insurance write off.The 340-600 has not been very popular so it may just be parted.Iberia damaged one last week in Quito on landing:
