1:09Most of the left elevator was recovered in three pieces, miles from the main crash site.
1:58Crews are removing water from the impact crater; a hazardous utility pole has already been removed.
3:42The elevator separated before impact, but investigators have not established whether that separation contributed to the crash.
5:38Asked about Mar-a-Lago security activity, the official says there is no evidence of a connection.
11:26Investigators lay out recovered wreckage to analyze the sequence of events rather than literally rebuilding the aircraft.

The cause remains undetermined. Investigators have recovered most of the Learjet's left elevator in three pieces, miles from the main crash site in Palm Beach County, Florida.

In the NTSB briefing posted by DWS News, an official explains what that discovery establishes, and what it does not. The distance shows that the components separated before impact. Investigators have not yet determined whether the separation contributed to the crash or resulted from forces acting on the aircraft.

"Important pieces of the aircraft separated before the impact," the official says during questions from reporters.

The recovery work is still underway. Teams have been removing water from the impact crater after a hazardous utility pole was removed, while the search continues for flight recorders and other critical components. Investigators have also received dashcam footage and eyewitness accounts, and are examining weather, maintenance records and crew qualifications.

Asked about nearby security operations at Mar-a-Lago, the official says there is no evidence of a connection.

The briefing drew about 185,000 views in seven hours, far beyond the channel's usual start for regular videos. Its central distinction is between evidence of separation in flight and an explanation for why the aircraft crashed.

This was the NTSB's final on-site briefing. The official says investigators will lay out recovered wreckage to examine the sequence of events, rather than literally rebuild the aircraft, and asks anyone finding possible debris not to touch or move it but to contact authorities.
