On the final impact, the right wing was shorn off and the main part of the aircraft skidded sideways, rolled over onto its back, and slid to a stop upside-down in a corn field to the right of Runway 22. Witnesses reported that the aircraft "cartwheeled" end-over-end, but the investigation did not confirm this.
And this is what was going on during the process of analyzing the debris impact to the wing.
Eyewitnesses said he was in considerable pain and complaining of rib injuries, and the force of the impact shattered the wing mirror of the van.
The full-back braced himself for the impact of the wing who, in kit, is virtually 17st only to find, as he closed his eyes, that the wing had switched tracks.
Carroll is a lockdown defender who will have an immediate impact on the wing, likely picking up the arduous defensive assignments each night.
Professor Czysz suggested that the leading edge panels and seals shifted from the impact because the wing would not have been designed to resist a blow that exerted sideways pressure.
Watson made her biggest impact from the wing last season; she had made a team-leading 63 three-pointers (third-most in the Big Ten) when the injury ended her season early.
The error outlier with a limited number of selected location 'k' based impact localization algorithm successfully localized low velocity impacts on the wing structure with an average localization error of 7.8 mm and a maximum localization error of 24.6 mm.
This raises the fascinating question of what the behavioural impacts of the wing mechanoreceptors and contact chemoreceptors are when they are activated simultaneously and send coincident inputs via the same nerve.
Several wind tunnel tests have been performed to obtain a physical insight into the impact of wing on the tail flow filed and to identify the independent factors responsible for this interaction.
It then struck the ground "at an approximately wings-level attitude" at below 30 miles per hour, and "the aircraft sustained substantial damage as a result of the impact and wing failure" the NTSB report says.
