Do a google search N6JR-----

I'm not speaking with any authority, I'm not withholding info

I have many years experience and from the pics I saw on here----he did not have landing flaps down---was he going around and had engines not spool up because of high angle of attack and poor airflow to the turbines???? I don't know---did he just not have enough flaps down for the speed he was flying???
We went thru constant checks and training with multiply failures stacked on to us---crew concept was good deal of it---Jack had no crew---Jack had a high speed a/c mixed into traffic much slower than him, Jack
recognized that there was a CONFLICT but didn't reslove it by going around--he was ( by everything apparent at this time) behind the airplane--He walked away so it was a good landing

After the prelim report you won't hear anything out of the FAA or NTSB for months, maybe year or so

just keep checking NTSB for accident info---

Want some interesting reading??? look up and read about the Hendricks accident a few years ago---see how far they were behind the a/c
