I have seen a picture and the tail lift hit the roolover / head support.

Unfortunately the ramp penetrated her visor which explains why she has extensive facial injuries. Very unfortunate that the ramp was left at that level.

A horrible accident, and one that sounds like a mechanical problem rather than human error. Hope she recovers well but at least she is in good hands at Addenbrookes.

Assuming her eye is the only functional loss she has, we may well see her back behind the wheel in the future. I hope she can bounce back.
