Machinbird;
This may help the discussion regarding flap position.
The first photograph is from IR2 (IIRC) but copied/rendered in B&W and rotated for easier comparison with the second image which is from the initial wreckage photographs, also copied, cropped and enhanced for clarity.
I think this is conclusive evidence that the flaps were in the up/retracted position. The rotating flap actuator faces forward (retracted) in the accident photograph but faces rearward (extended) in the IR photograph.
For further clarity, a flap-track schematic showing the rotator in both postions is provided below.
