Another article that was circulating said they caught a wing and tumbled
on landing.  That just isn't true.  They impacted the ground totally
upside down at about 45 degree angle and slid 140'.  The impact zone and
debris field was lined up with the runway, so was not a base to final
stall spin.  The engine was developing power by the look of the prop
blades, all control surfaces were intact and the flaps were fully
deployed and appeared to be down the same amount.  The speedbrakes were
slightly deployed the same on each wing, but I suppose that might have
been because of the high impact.  The wings were still attached, and
actually the entire airframe was basically still together.   I was at
the crash site (with the NTSB guys) with Joe just after the accident.=20
The NTSB will release a preliminary report next week.  Ron Galbraith
