Stablemate
I just watched the stablemate to the crashed aircraft depart from YHML on a charter to EN. It was airborne half way down 35 flat climb out graceful, gear up before threshold and flew well with 8 or so souls on board.
We at the a/c could not even begin to envisage what went wrong.
Comment was made that in the video on TV the aircraft at EN looked to be flying straight and level.
Seeing the King Air here just an hour ago makes it seem all the worse that the catastrophy occurred at EN on takeoff.
I remember AAV at mascot and it was different scenario.
But watching this plane at 100 feet off the runway all I can say to you pundits is whatever happened was unrecoverable after watching a plane under full control take off so effortlessly with so much power.
The video on the warehouse showed a crane hauling out the left engine and prop and someone said the blades were bent back at right angles and it didn't appear feathered.
is this correct and what does that say about the left engine?
