  Watching that vid though, it does look like it was maybe too heavy. It was ascending and then just died/stalled. At first it looked like it was going to vertical to me and lost lift, but may not be true. Could have been a normal angle from what I can tell but couldnt sustain the ascent.

  • Not sure but for me it looks like power was lost a moment where pilot had no time to react.yurimon
  • especially if it was extremely heavy cant imagine any opportunity to recover.yurimon
  • Once the plane stalls there is nothing you can do. Has nothing to do with pilots reactions.instrmntl
