Krusty34 Of course you are closer to the figure, a typo on my part. Three of my family were on the flight and I was able to read the full report, which somehow was made available to one of them. It made very interesting reading, especially the CVR transcript and the DFDR info from TOD to finally stopping. Extremely fortunate that it did not end much worse, considering it went off the end at 88 Kts, compared to the Connie which went off at about 40 kts.
