Sad news, James' program is competent, he was always a positive presence in development of capable and effective enhancements to aircraft. While testing is always an elevated risk, this does not yet appear to be test related, the data will be telling as will the wreckage disposition and component evaluations.
R&D adds additional risks to what always has an underlying risk.
Once the shock has dissipated, even though the pain will remain, the team needs to get back onto the horse and continue doing what they have done so well for so long.
