“Looks to me in the video that the plane banked to much and completely lost lift.”

I thought so too, to me it looks like he stalled it - but then, no stall warning heard in the cockpit. And perhaps it’s just the video but I would have thought he was too high for a powerline strike. Just awful.

Yea, I don’t know what caused it, whether pilot over banked, or something failed causing it... but video from what I could see definitely appeared as though the plane was banked way too far... lost lift and fell like a stone.

Much like the fairchild accident.. of course in the fairchild accident it was without question Pilot intent... idiot decided he was going to try to show off and do a barrel roll... killing everyone on board. Air Force had plenty of warning about this pilots idiotic and risky behavior and let him keep flying anyway.

Will see what happens from the investigation with this crash, have absolutely no way to know what really happened at this point, but it sure appeared to me for whatever reason that plan was far too far banked.
