"ADS-B data indicates that N900VA departed from Grand Junction Airport, CO (GJT), at 17:37 UTC. Approximately ten minutes later, the aircraft was recorded at a high rate of descent, nearly 13,000 feet per minute, roughly 30 miles west-northwest of GJT, marking the last known position before the crash. Early reports suggest the aircraft was on a test flight following maintenance.

Shortly after requesting a block of altitude, the aircraft slowed to 165 knots and entered a right-spiraling descent. This slowing of airspeed and rapid descent indicates a rapid loss of control of the aircraft by the flight crew. The cause of the loss of control could be attributed to failures in the post-maintenance equipment or unanticipated changes to the aircraft’s flight characteristics after maintenance, or simply a loss of control of the aircraft during the testing portion of the flight."
