Si Fly Flight 3275 were found in good condition. Analysis from the crash site concluded that the plane struck tree tops first before impacting terrain. The first impact occurred 15 metres from the top of a ridge, in a rocky mid-mountain area. During the impact, the fuselage and wing disintegrated, the fuel ignited, and an explosion occurred.

They add ground truth information to remote sensing
