The flight track is pretty wild. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/.../KRUQ/tracklog
I'm working on getting the ATC tapes. They were on an IFR flight plan but from what I hear ATC was asking for turns and they weren't/couldn't comply. Crash happened shortly after being asked just to hold wings level and 4k ft. Could be an instrument error or something I think the weather was pretty bad at the time. If you want the nitty gritty details I do follow these things. NTSB preliminary will be out in 14 days (the final will be a year or two but often the prelim has enough to know what probably happened).
