On airplane crashes Fox is getting as bad as ABCCBSNBC, the guy reporting is doing some of the worst reporting and uneducated speculation i've ever witnessed.

If it occured on takeoff and went into the hanger on it's back it apparently lost an engine on takeoff and the pilot failed to take corrective action that must be done immediatly.

Or there could have been frost on the wings which would increase stall speed and if the airplane was uncoordinated it could have gone into a spin. Losing an engine is plausible and the pilot would have to immediately go Vmc, but let's let NTSB do their job before we jump to any conclusions.
