well I have no idea how that happened. NTSB will most likely do a report along with the FAA and get a response.
doesn't look like an aerodynamics issue though
If anyone's interested, slightly graphic when full res is viewed, but here's a photo taken as the plane was crashing

I though the the title said killer whale killed in plane crash for some reason.
Looks to me like the engine stalled out while inverted right above the ground. Note the blue smoke out the bottom of the cowl shortly before the plane lurches and drops.[QUOTE=Zephyrs;41153171]
This is a prop plane though so who knows what it was using.[/QUOTE][QUOTE=RichyZ;41156039]if it was a turbo prop, sure
but otherwise, it could be using kerosene[/QUOTE]
Most likely 110 octane, leaded avgas. It's a single row radial engine.
better video

it could possibly be an engine stall, looking at the smoke... but it edged over on the left wing so fast. I wouldn't expect an engine stall to cause that
