hi - lurker here, but reading my local tv new's site and this seems like
an odd
statement from an eyewitness, i believe the correct term is "notoriously
unreliable" eyewitness

I don't trust a damn thing any eyewitness says about an airplane crash
unless they're a pilot with relevant experience, and even then I'm
skeptical. I'm an instrument pilot and have no idea what constitutes
significant ice to a Challenger, even less so what that would actually look
like. Odds are your local TV news knows less about this than you do.
