Kudos to the NTSB spokeswoman. Stuck to the known facts, discouraged speculation was clear, concise.

Really good briefing from this layman's pov.

while assuring more info as the investigation continues. Also, iirc, the only person in the briefing to note the loss of two lives and their families. I found that a nice "personal" touch. And overall, appreciated all the mentions from everyone about the first responders, triage, hospital responses, etc.
