Just the one from me. Lager51 declared IFE as they couldn't reattach the boom.
Hope you like

Great photo! Out of curiosity what happens in a situation like this? I assume the boom impacts on the runway on landing so the main danger is debris. I presume it is a component that can be replaced without a major overhaul?
Thanks

I'm sure I read somewhere the boom is detachable in flight in an emergency..
Nice catch either way.
