A quick review of: LZ altitude 9500ft and temperature (guess: 10-20°C) probably almost 2h of fuel on board, HAA interior with our typical Med Crew and Pilot = 4800-5000lbs, maybe AirCon ON (= 110lbs penalty)
To heavy for HOGE but OK for HIGE. As said before sh....y approach and voila, outcome extremely lucky......
FAA Registry shows it as a B2
