Yes, indeed so... as others are saying with a severely weakened area possibly leading to flutter of the whole empennage. Dare I suggest the circumferential tear forward of the RPB was the end result...

Those asking for accurate cross-referenced timelines are on it I'd say...
A tragic and horrific event I am sure.. very similar in outcomes to MH17 over Ukraine and Pan Am Lockerbie.
