That's what I thought when the witness described "white smoke" like a "stunt plane"

I agree that both wings appear to have made it to the crash site. Whether or not all the engines or their components did is another question. I can easily see where a prop/blade or rotating internal engine component liberated causing all sorts of structural and/or control damage. That's why heavier rotating components have specific life limits for replacement.
