She spoke til the very end. It takes ALOT of self awareness and courage to speak as calm as she did. They surpassed supersonic sound speed as they DOVE IMSTANTLY, and yet she still sounded put together….. The reason she said, “Jack look outside!” Is because they were inside the low bearing clouds the entire time going MACH speed. The moment she told him to look is the moment she saw the ground they were heading to for a split second. Then a second later they crashed. My heart is shattered. But damn whom ever created and raised this daughter I just hope they know they made one of the most courageous women. To be so young young and already so successful, the way she held her emotions as a woman while dealing with literal G FORCES and kept her calm til the end is fucking impeccable.

Death was instantaneous. No pain. Happened faster than nerves can conduct or brain even process. The fear before the crash is horrific.

. Icing and moderate turbulence lead to a phenomenon called Mach tuck. It is common in Learjet 60’s and older Learjets. Essentially, you exceed the maximum airspeed at altitude and it is unrecoverable to the point that you continue to speed up while not being able to produce lift with your wings. Further description: (your coefficient of lift eventually moves too far behind the wing making it impossible to produce lift, this causes the aircraft to lose altitude like a falling dart, in turn gaining airspeed and crashing. All Pilots are aware of this, some just push too close to the maximum speed threshold, and when you experience clear air turbulence or other factors like icing that would push you too far past the maximum speed threshold without the capability to control the wing normally, this happens. Wrap up: icing changes the shape of the wing critically and adds weight to plane (double whammy, but mainly airflow issue over the wing), Learjets are vulnerable to over speed situations because of the type of wing is small, sleek, and unforgiving in the name of efficiency and performance, mix all of that together with moderate turbulence which can fluctuate your airspeed, this causes the aircraft to enter Mach tuck over speed condition. The result is a lawn dart scenario that you see here. Very sad.

That was rough to listen to. I'm amazed she stayed as calm as she did. Hope they can figure out what happen

For those who said parachute, it would rip the plane in half at that speed. Seriously there was nothing anyone can do at that moment.

I know everyone keeps saying they didn't feel the pain..but knowing that the whole way down what was going to happen is absolutely tragic. I hear her copilot praying and my heart breaks for the families who lost their loved ones.

screams and says "Jeff, look outside" that's probably the moment they cut through the clouds and could visibly see land and how fast they were falling cz it's a whole other thing from just looking at numbers
