when they crashed into the brush, she was inside the front cockpit. >> they leveled out so that amanda could get back inside the cockpit. >> he had to get amanda back in the airplane before he actually could adjust his direction, otherwise she might have fallen off the plane. >> and then as he tried to make his way back into the open area, he didn't have enough altitude so he went down in the brush just across that -- across the runway. >> after the wreckage is cleared, the crash site provides clues as to what split-second decisions kyle made in an attempt to save his and amanda's lives. >> this is where the plane went down. and after looking at the site, it appears to me that he was trying to turn back towards the runway because there's a tree up there that has some branches missing at the top. and if he was coming from that direction, that implies that he was going back towards the runway and he just didn't have enough altitude to make it.
