There’s a massive telltale sign in the picture… it’s the large swathe that has been cut across the paddock. It is not at all reflective of the recent crashes of the Cirrus and Tecnam and the damage is not indicative of a stall / spin with limited forward travel as the wings appear have been level at impact.
Wild speculation on my behalf, however the damage looks to be high speed and at a high rate of descent. Is a high speed stall in the usual sense possible in a 172?
