Rubbernecking or not...

I think its fair to say that any pilot is keen to review the reasons why an accident might have happened, ASAP, so that they don't follow the same path.

Probably 5 or 10 different ideas come to mind about this crash, so I, for one, run through them quickly and think "would I be able to prevent or handle that scenario".

Any suggestions speculations therefore have some value. Whether the incident is 12hrs or 12 weeks old makes little difference. Reading the report is also interesting.

It is certainly part of TBM training to be aware of the need to apply a lot of right rudder to compensate for Torque when applying a lot of power for example on a go around. Many incidents involving left wing striking ground have been presumed to be caused by such a scenario. Truckee for example.
