I read it in Russian, series of articles in the "History of Aviation" magazine, so pages are different. About "bent at the roots" - it maybe depend from how strong the plane's nose touched the ground, for example. Or really it was wheels up landing. I'll try to find a technical description (result of engineer inspection or something like it). In all cases, it isn't desicive part of story.

OK. I'll ask the friends, maybe somebody saw it
