It's a spoof. The roof wac CUT off, and a piece of folded metal
(possibly the roof after being folded) attached to the plane's wing.

Car roofs do not tear off when they hit low objects; leave that for
Hollywood. And if they did manage to anyway, they wouldn't leave
straight edges on the vehicle's undistorted pillars.

If the original image could be examined, it might show that it's the
image that's a fake, rather than go through the hassles of deroofing
a bus and hanging a piece of metal from a plane's wing.
