Didn't come off too bad. I've seen worse.
I had a whoopsie-doodle in an SNJ landing in a sudden Florida rain storm at Milton T , and through grace and luck did not drag a wing and went round slowly with no damage. As I taxied back with my injured pride, the retired Skyraider pilot Colonel running the FBO came on the radio "hey Russ, could you go back and do that again, I want to get a picture"

best to all
