According to comments from the Brazilian rescue team, most of the 50 bodies recovered had no clothes on.
This was confirmed by forensics held in Brazil.

If this is true, what kind of wind (or water) velocity can tear clothes off ?

If the plane hit the water "intact", the force of the water entering the a/c after it broke up would be strong enough to rip off their clothes ?

I can't imagine why people would lie about this. And both rescue and forensic teams had no contact with each other.

Brazilian press did not published many details about the condition of the bodies (maybe in respect for the families), so this (no clothes on) issue was not discussed in detail, and I can understand why.

If this matter had already been discussed here, I'm sorry...
