Richard Quest on CNN - his report was virtually total piffle, utter tosh.

He was spilling total stool from start to finish, flaps, engines, pilots, landing, all related comment were BS.

These Guys did a great job in not Stalling and maintaining the best profile in the face of GPWS, Stick Shaker, EICAS warnings, Screens flickering as Gen's drop off line. They did a fine job.

Having seen the grainy footage of the last minute of the flight, the tail must have struck the ground first. The FO was managing the aircraft on the edge of the stall, must be at least 25 Degrees nose up.
