I can see now where people on board got the idea that the plane cartwheeled... looked like they almost flipped over and spun around about 300 degrees. It's amazing seeing the aft pressure bulkhead peeled like an orange.

I bet we're going to see even more of a push for "being a pilot" after this one...not a bad thing.
I'm going to stop reading about it. Just saw an article in the USA Today that said that determining the cause of the crash could take years. First reaction: Why? They have video of the crash, the black/orange boxes are intact, and the pilots are alive.

.....I'm already distracted. Duck Dynasty is on.
