[As the widow of a pilot who died in a similar manner I can only say that it is too soon to judge. In my husband’s case the gust lock had been released for take off and the plane had the lift, so proving it was released. Once it took off and achieved elevation the gust lock malfunctioned preventing steering and the plane took a nose dive with a full tank of gas. It took a full year to determine the cause. My heart is breaking for the families that lost their loved ones. The only survivor is truly a miracle man. God clearly isn’t done with him yet.
