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:

OOPS!

Even if they can rebuild it, would you want to be the company that buys it?

Scrapped for parts I'd bet.

I'm sure the crown prince will be able to get another one.

Someone is going to get an arse kicking.
