Found this from someone claiming to be a Sheriff's deputy (and I have no
reason to believe otherwise.) You have to hand it to the Hawker pilots,
at least for getting the airplane on the ground with this kind of
damage.
We keep getting this report of how beat-up the pilot was and how much
damage there was to her instruments, and yet they say she made the
landing. I have to wonder if those reports are just guessing by the
uninformed media, or if not, why she did not let the F/O land the
aircraft? I don't know the Hawker cockpit, nor do I have any idea of the
actual crew dynamic in the aftermath of this accident, but on first
hearing it seems a little unusual.
I look forward to getting more information. A cockpit voice recorder
transcript would be nice. Too bad we don't have one.
Nice photos, though.

The Deputy needs to have the spelling police attend to his computer.
