I like some of the comments I've read as well:

[QUOTE="some Dan on yahoo?"]I would still like to know why the only rear wheel is out !! When the landing gear is actuated, all three wheels are supposed to extend.[/QUOTE]

so photos show:

1) broken off elevator
2) only one of many landing gears deployed
3) a photo of being strapped in with a parachute etc. before take off.
4) a clear view of the cockpit that looks like nobody is in it ( theory is (I think) that something caused the seat to lay down, stopping the pilot from reaching controls).
