Photo Comment

Result of overweight landing after being unable to spray or jettison load. On landing the left main gear scissor broke and aircraft swung right and off the runway ending up on it's nose. The internal spray tanks broke loose and pushed the flight deck bulkhead up to the central pedestal I believe.
