What is being missed by some here is that any attempt to approach the ground with no (or minimal) flaps / slats would have resulted in a GPWS warning that is impossible to miss. All this talk of an inadvertant "miss" of the flaps is way off base, IMHO.

There will be lessons to learn from this accident. But is it really that hard to wait for some official information, rather than engaging in ridiculous speculation?
