N6JR (cn RB-161) A firefighter approaches Jack Roush's Premier, moments after the crash. Jack is still in the cockpit. The aircraft was flying at 100-200 feet AGL, and appeared to be in a high-alpha, low-energy state. Moments later, the jet rolled 45-60 degrees to the right while descending, dragged a wingtip, spun 180 degrees on the ground, and came to rest in this position. |
