THE LEFT WING CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE TERRAIN APPROXIMATELY 39 FEET LEFT OF THE CENTERLINE OF THE RUNWAY AND APPROXIMATELY 324 FEET FROM THE THRESHOLD. AFTER DRAGGING THE LEFT WING FOR APPROXIMATELY 425 FEET, THE NOSE OF THE AIRCRAFT IMPACTED THE TERRAIN CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO LOSE DIRECTIONAL CONTROL SEPARATING THE LEFT MAIN GEAR AND THE NOSE GEAR FROM THE AIRCRAFT.
