Just read on MSN that witnesses claim to hear a loud bang and looked up to see flames and debris coming from the aircraft before it crashed. It said the flight tracker only showed one drop in altitude but that drop would have been close to surface elevation. Pilot reported he needed to return but never made it.
“It said the flight tracker only showed one drop in altitude but that drop would have been close to surface elevation”
No, flight tracker shows 4 drastic drops in the last minute. 4 down, and 4 just as hard up, each change greater than the last.
