Scenario A

So I now believe we agree that scenario A is the most likely one.

- The A350 was probably 1.5 to 2 meters RIGHT of centerline based on last position data.

The Dash 8 wreckage seems to be abeam C5 where it lined up; so it was most likely not dragged along the runway.

Thanks for info. If A would be true then that does not explain why the radome just has a big dent.... the damage to the front of the A350 would have been much more severe.

Questions...

Questions to dig deeper into:

1. What part of the A350 hit the DHC-8 first?

2. Why did the nose gear collapse?
