Normal speed below 10,000 is 250 kts then slowing to 210 kts prior to extending flaps and gear and slowing to its final approach speed. This is really strange.

According to the radar trace I saw there was a line of t-storms between them and the airport but they crashed before they got into that so it seems wx wasn't a contributor. I'm still interested in the possibility of load shift. Hard to tell that from this type of wreckage but the FDR might provide a clue with control positions.
