Load shift...
Whole 7 hours old ?
Did the pilot radio the tower of such a problem, seems he didn't much time for that.
Old news..
Load shift...
And here I was blaming gravity
IMO... Too steep a climb rate for the payload.
Or not enough FAS... Either way... It stalled and dropped like a rock.
Had it had about another 2000 feet before stalling...
It may have been able to recover... Maybe.
That's the quickest investigation I have ever seen..... Load shift??

C&PSeven people were killed on Monday when a civilian cargo plane crashed shortly after taking off from Bagram Air Base, northeast of Kabul, according to an international military spokesman. The police chief of the surrounding area, Ezmarai Nasiri, said the plane "crashed soon after it took off and its tail caught on fire." There was no information late on Monday about whether the plane was carrying cargo or its intended destination. It belonged to National Air Cargo, a military contractor based in Orchard Park, N.Y., outside Buffalo. Military officials said that the cause of the crash was being investigated, but that there had been no enemy activity in the area at the time.
They may not have been hand flying the airplane.
I am at Bagram airfield, that was one hell of a fireball when it crashed, the word is from the radio coms. that the load shifted, they were carring vehicles and other cargo.
