"Examination of the accident site by the National Transportation Safety Board, investigator-in-charge revealed that the debris path was about 1⁄2 mile long. All major components of the airplane were discovered in the debris path. The first piece observed was the vertical stabilizer with the upper portion of the rudder attached. The left wing separated about mid span and both horizontal stabilizers also separated and were scattered throughout the center of the debris field."
