The jet took off at 17:28 local time from Battle Creek Executive airport and climbed to 15,000ft, then at 17:27 “began a rapid descent”

I guess they shouldn't have installed the flux capacitor

That time table had me wondering too.

Perhaps there was structural failure that contributed to their inability to recover. What was done to the wings requiring a stall test? In my experience, any structurally sound commercially made aircraft should recover from a 'normal' stall, give time and altitude. Perhaps they entered a flat spin where the plane is no longer flying, but falling? Do Biz Jets have 'black boxes'?
