Coleman Myers Missing wing engine section
Has the missing engine and wing section been located yet ?.
I must have missed that one... wasn't aware that this was the case...
If the loss of the a/c was a result of in-flight break up due to inadvertant entry into convective weather the discussion of CFIT and staying above the published MSA becomes somewhat redundant. Without wishing to pre-empt any findings by the investigators it would not be an outrageous surmise given the weather in the area at the time to consider that the poor guys got trapped in an area of T/storms that proved impossible to survive. And for those out there that consider weather radar to be a guarantee of avoiding storm cells... it isn't... and it can be extremely difficult to interpret the display accurately in mountainous terrain..
