The NTSB people are the world's best at accident reconstruction. Given that they have a complete airframe (no parts missing due to fire or sinking) I expect they'll find the cause fairly easily. Witness reports will be used to confirm, not to establish. I doubt there's much we can add, and anyone who hypothesizes without examination of the wreckage is just speculating.

Not that we all haven't speculated at one time or another, but I have high confidence that the NTSB will produce a conclusive final report. I wouldn't be surprised if the preliminary report (expected within two weeks) has useful information.
