Witnesses on the ground reported that the aircraft appeared to start a turn to the right at what would be a normal position for an aircraft routing to Grand Turk, but that the aircraft continued to roll right until it reached an angle of bank estimated to be between 45 and 80 degrees from level.
Maybe a slight loss of control, he was able to level it before impact, minimizing damage, saving the pax lives, though he perished , but the fact that he was able to control it during descent means that he had control of it, to me, not trying to make any conclusions, I'll keep an open mind but I'm just saying.
