Default Cadillac commercial accident?

dive brake is deployed and the port is not.


I wouldn't read too much into that. I've noted many crashes in which
one wing is bent back in such a way as to disrupt the airbrake
controls at the root rib. So the asymmetrical airbrake deployment
could be an effect, and not a cause.

Thanks, Bob K.
