I printed-out the report off of the NTSB website (which I acquired from the valuable Aviation Safety Network website via a link). It is only 9 pages long. I think this might be an attachment page to what leadpenny generously posted above, so I add it here.

The report I printed (via PDF) has the pilot named as

The pilot was very experienced. The investigators read like a Dream Team. But not even they could figure out what happened.

Thing about the Delta is, that a plane, missile, UAV or anything could have hit the Caravan, and we may never find it....The Delta "eats" things....one thing is for certain....the Navy brought one of their MADD helicopters out to look at the scene a few times, and that has always seemed strange to me.
