no luv and river city
if headings were known (even assumed no wind conditions) and sun angle at time of day, this might support a non head on crash.
and if only the PILOT(not copilot)to of the legacy recalls the shadow, perhaps the boeing was at his 9 o'clock position. sun at back of boeing casting shadow
anyone have approximate headings from departure to destination on these 2 flights, no wind magnetic will do nicely.
to the chap who made the nice picture, I applaud your effort...I wish your magic computer could shift the image to show the legacy 90 degrees to boeing, the winglet striking the bottom of the boeing and the horizontal stabilizer hitting the cockpit.
unlikely that the legacy overtook the boeing from behind.
I recall the physics of flight being discussed with reference to helicopters and bumble bees, SIKORSKY said something like: according to physics the bumble bee can't fly, BUT because the bumble bee doesn't know PHYSICS, he goes around flying quite nicely...same too the 'copter.
