I was looking at the Calabasas crash site images this morning. I can’t tell much (though I can tell more than the many doofi who are speculating about it ). It’s obvious though that the S-76 went in very hard and the victims didn’t feel anything. Indeed, ATC data shows an air-speed of 153 knots when the signal stopped, which is near or maybe a little above this particular machine’s maximum. Witnesses report the aircraft was flying very low, which seems reckless at that speed in fog and around hilly terrain. I’m wondering if the pilot realized he was in trouble and increased power to climb out of it, then was unable to do so because of a control failure. It is just a gut- wrenching tragedy, especially since 3 children and 4 of their parents were killed (Coach Altobelli and his wife both died with their daughter).
