A generally good interview on Today, but does anybody know where that animation came from? It seems more than a bit sloppy to portray the Legacy losing the entire port side of the horizontal stab and entire winglet when the still photo clearly showed the damage was not that severe. One could overlook the winglet, but if they had lost that much of the stab one might conclude they would have suffered the same unfortunate fate as the Gol 737.

It was also interesting to hear that due to translation issues the reports that made it appear they were formally "charged" just before their release also seem to have been somewhat exaggerated.

Best of luck to you, guys, we're pulling for you.
