Pattern_is_full - this sounds plausible.



Looking at the propellers, it seems that the #1 side has hit the ground: the blade tips appear missing at least on the blade that is visible. With the propellers running clockwise (when observed from behind), chances are that debris did not impact the cabin but got thrown away to the sides. #2 seems to be intact, but the blade angle seems to be a fair bit lower than the start/feather position displayed after a normal shutdown; this might hint at a quick shutdown via the T-handles.
