Hi.

In the air, even in extremis, aerodynamic surfaces do not lead, they follow. It is highly unlikely, IMO, that the remainder of the aircraft travelled at any time inverted and tail first. An intact tail will be feathers to the arrow, always. I continue to think the aircraft swapped ends and aspect late in the energy trail.

Your impact depiction is first rate.
