Willie Everlearn, rebel SLR?? Where do you get that one from? There are no rebels in Tanzania.
CFIT? I don't know any pilot, especially Lorne, who would fly into a mountain in broad daylight in perfectly clear weather.
Icing not an issue at the altitude and place where he was he was.
Mid-air big bird strike is a very strong suspect.
structural breakup... it's a plane, you never know.

The TCAA, equivalent of the FAA, is investigating, and I don't know, due to the citizenships of Lorne and his passenger if the CTSB and the British CAA are also involved. On the previous fatal crashes that I have been involved with in TZ, the NTSB got involved because the plane was a Cessna and the passengers US citizens.

Who are you btw, you registered today. Are you a close friend of Lorne or a journalist? My apologies for being over-suspicious of lurkers but he was a very close friend.
