Yes the streamlining and cosmetic bits of engines apparently often drop
off on a hard landing. It was a piece of debris like this that did for
Concorde.


Nope, it came off a DC10 that had just taken off before the Concorde.

For Brian

This might deter you from flying ...

Looks like the vibrations shook off a wing flap or something.


Wing flap? I don't think so. All the bits seemed to be engine cowling.
Loss of a wing flap would have been much more serious.
