The following picture from AvHerald shows that they never reached the Yasuj NDB to begin the approach. I imagine the CVR will be able to provide some clues as to what they were thinking/seeing.

An early poster who was flying in the area at the time, stated that TRW were around. Speculating: Perhaps the ADF was messed up by the TRW.

I hope Iran lets us all know in due course. As I recall, they do a very good job of accident investigation, with subsequent disclosure in accordance with ICAO protocol.

Perhaps TRW that were quite cold at the flight's altitude, which could result in a lot of ice in addition to turbulence.

RIP
