Almost regardless of type, it would be very, very difficult not to Stall, trying to avoid the water til the last second.... Hopefully just as the tailcone kisses the surface, the wing pays off, the a/c flops horizontally onto the sea. And we're grabbing for survival gear, beacon first....
Without power, I don't think that happens. AOA isn't going to be nose high long enough to bleed off speed. Just trying to flare may immediately cause Stall. The airplane has two thirds of the planned fuel load still aboard, and how close is that to normal gross?
Thirty eight miles short, who wouldn't try to extend the flight path to land. My old house is next to that runway, on the Mavericks side... sad, just prayerful sad...rip
