Default Badwater Bill has left the earth to soar with the eagles!

The entire matter should be settled when the NTSB determines whether or not
the engine was producing rated power on impact.

How could he do this?

I just read the NTSB's preliminary report. Witnesses saw stuff coming
out of or off the a/c prior to the turn and personal effects were
found in that general area. I don't know how the canopy was designed,
so could he have been fighting an open or failed canopy and simply
been out of the known flight envelope and reached a point of not being
able to control the a/c?
