When watching the horrific event on the news, I am sure I can hear the engines initially at high RPM as it is coming down, is it possible on an SU27 that too high an angle of attack, as seen just before impact, may starve the intakes of air and then the engines flame out? I know aircraft like F-16's have the technology to not allow this state, but how advanced are the ruskies? (and before any smart arse replies, it is a question not an assumption, Im sure there are many theories!) It also looked to me as if at least one of the crew ejected after the ground impact, I hope for their sanity it was not their error which was the cause.
