another demonstration of what happens when rudder effectiveness ends, and asymmetric thrust takes over directional control (lack thereof). I watched one of those crash in San Diego many moons ago at Brown Field, it wound up in the stage one pond of a sewage treatment plant...fortunately somebody in the front snatched the power off of the operating engine and heaved back on the controls, it landed flat with little forward motion, the two fellows inside said the worst part was knowing what was in the pond, and having to drop into it
