The Canadian TSB reported the flight attendant seated in the aft jump seat during landing received serious injuries, received first aid and was transported to a local hospital. The other flight attendant received minor injuries. The touchdown required a high load landing event (HLLE) inspection, which determined that both main landing gear struts had been bottomed out. The aircraft remained on the ground for 6 days until the HLLE was completed, the subsequent maintenance included replacement of both main gear struts. The aircraft has been returned to service in the meantime.
