The DC-10 struck approximately 21 trees. According to flight crew, the bottom fell out on final. Lost portins of the right aileron and a good chunk of leading edge slat. As well as some elevator....

The crew has zero firefighting experience and made some serious mistakes.

Glad no one was hurt.

I have 2 pictures of it on the ground after it landed. A big ole section of the slat on the left wing is gone, and the aileron is all twisted to hell.
