In the Master Eject mode, rear seats (empty) would have gone .5
seconds (one half a second) prior to the front seats going out. If
the co-pilot waited too long to initiate ejection, I would guess the
back seats went, then impact less than a half second later.

Just guessing though...

Keep us posted on this please...

Jacksonville Times Union reporting two bodies found in wreckage.
Interestingly, same article reports two chutes found *two miles* from
crash site.

It's hard to imagine rear chutes getting high enough to drift two whole
miles, while the front seats didn't even get out of the plane. I can't
help but wonder if that's correct.
