Mexican Charter Flight
As pointed out by others, this tragic episode will bring new meaning to 'Mexican charter flight' or just reinforce old stereotypes about 'Mexican charter flight'. What a disaster all around, and too bad this talented group of passengers made a poor choice.
Having flown make and model of this aircraft I'd opine that pressurization loss was not the cause. Controlled flight into terrain does not fit the scenario. Press accounts point to a descent rate of about 50,000 fpm. Sounds like a high speed upset perhaps followed by Mach tuck and controllability issues. Be interesting to see if all the parts were on the Lear as it impacted. The condition of the captain's remains, probable lack of a FDR, and a primitive CVR (in pieces?) do not help resolve this.
