Fair points, but the aircraft did strike the ground 380 feet past the embankment and back of an envelope calculations are sufficient to prove that this is possible and reasonable without invoking some violation of the laws of physics. The aircraft was in a relatively shallow descent through most of the curved flight path and it was only after the angle of the wings exceeded 60° that the wings stalled and gravity became the predominant force. The rate of descent was not constant.
Of course the aircraft was in nothing like free fall...
So 100 feet past the embankment in a vacuum, maybe.
