The aircraft was probably doing about 250 knots when it exploded. If all the kinetic energy was transferred into a climb it could not have climbed a few thousand feet. That did not happen. This is just plain physics. It did not happen that way.

It was climbing at about at about 33 feet per second and doing 376 knots according to the last active radar ping received before the initiating event. It was at ~13,800 feet when the event happened.

Thanks for that info but I assure it did not climb after exploding.
