Medical jet with six aboard crashes

Unimaginable to have a child’s receive life-saving surgery and then have this happen on the way home.

The videos are terrifying. It looks like it was almost a 90 degree dive.
 
They were in IFR conditions. It’s very easy to become disoriented and lose spatial awareness. My guess is that the crew stalled the aircraft, didn’t believe they were in a stall and entered an accelerated spin. Hopefully they’ll be able to get some recoverable data and actually determine if the cause was pilot error or if the aircraft broke up mid-air.

However, that does not make this tragic outcome any less tragic. That patient and her mom should have been safely flown home and the family should have been celebrating her recovery after successful treatment at the hospital she was just discharged from.

Everything released so far only references a small right turn that was followed by a slight left turn and then a steep decent with a max altitude of 1,500 with the flight in the air for less than a minute. A lot of things would have had to go wrong for them to enter a stall
