Jeffrey Gregory is identified as a pilot of the Learjet in The Sun's new report on the fatal Florida crash. Photographs, information drawn from FAA records and a friend's tribute bring another member of the crew into coverage previously dominated by emergency recordings and footage of the impact.
The upload has drawn about 121,000 views in its first four hours. It combines the identification with a reconstruction of the flight from Austin towards the Bahamas, showing its route into developing storm weather near Florida.
Aviation expert Terry Tozer returns to the loss-of-control questions explored in the analysis we reported here earlier. He interprets the footage as suggesting an overspeed dive and a possible missing tailplane, but those observations do not establish what caused the crash.
Later, Tozer explains what investigators will seek from the flight data and cockpit voice recorders: evidence that could connect the crew's emergency reports with the aircraft's final movements. Emergency vehicles and the cordoned-off roadway close the report.
