Just saw a big picture of the Fokker 50 from behind. Badly "flattened". Definitely no flaps extended, and the right propeller seemed undamaged, not feathered. The left propeller destroyed, it seems. Could the "flattened" wreckige suggest little forward motion at the moment of impact? A stall, or spin? Just thoughts. The plane had apparently (according to a newspaper) just left a holdingpattern, heading for the airport. (I'm not a pilot, obviously). I guess the two survivors were very lucky. The captain will surely end all speculations, when he can be questioned.
