Professor Plum:

It is not an either or issue.
The footage is easily googled. Have some thought for the families.
I don't accept your false dichotomy. As I stated above, some family members would not want to see it, and others would want to know, if they could. People differ in their reactions.
If I crashed during my flight tomorrow, and my wife saw footage like that the day after, I can't imagine how she'd feel.
What are the odds your wife would be googling for crash video the day after, Professor?

As above, we each react differently.

Vin Rouge:

Most likely would seem to me to be ...

a. Load shift aft
b. Load / ACFT mistakenly out of CG
c. Runaway trim?
d. ????? (some other flight control malfunction)

We shall see.

For those getting upset at the video:

how many of you seen a crash happen right in front of you, in real life? You don't get to look away, you don't get to rewind, but there it is, right in front of you, as it happens. (I imagine a few of you have seen such, given this is a Mil Aircrew Forum).

Well, I have. It's something you never forget.
