Sounds like a spin caused by the loss of an engine. Pure speculation though.

Thoughts and prayers out to the families.

Yep that would be it. Supposedly there is some video footage that captured it too. Second crash in 2 days now......sucks

Huh? You do realize there's a plane crash somewhere in the U.S. pretty much every day, right? Last month, only Dec. 5th was accident-free.

This month has been a little better, with the 7th, 11th and 20th remaining accident-free.

I believe Ray was talking about the second crash in the area, not sure though.
