All indications of a Stall/spin accident into the ground by a rich pilot trying to fly a light jet like a Cessna 172 he was following in to the airport.
With the possibility ice accumulation on the wings, given the icing reports, or bird ingestion, since they were reported everywhere, the above conclusion is both premature and harsh.
NTSB also stated today that both engines were operating and there was no ice accumulation on the aircraft.
All systems were normal.
