Very unusual to see an aircraft enter into a flat spin like that during the enroute to arrival portion of a flight. The third picture in particular indicates some crazy aircraft motion just prior to the crash (grey line is the projected path direct to SP Aprt).

That’s absolutely awful. I can only imagine the last minute of terror they would have all felt… There would have been no mistaking that.
