Lots of speculation, of course. Capt had 8000 hrs, no info how many in type. Used every inch of an 11000 ft runway( info confirms they backtaxied to the end) on a hot day (110 degrees) near full load, and got airborne at the very end (kicks up dust from overrun) and mushed out.
Sole survivor reports hearing a bang 30 sec before impact, but plane was barely in the air that long.
