Contexto
The aircraft contacted the first trees in an essentially level flight path and with no roll angle, mainly with the right wing and forward fuselage. This is evident from parts found near the first trees to be damaged: wing leading edgelslat, parts of the green position light cover on the outer right wing and the rear nose-gear door.
In normal level flight, pitch, yaw and angle of attack are very small and can be neglected. However, errors during manoeuvres can be significant, but manoeuvres usually involve a substantial roll angle, so wind data are usually excluded when the roll angle is above a threshold (typically 3 to 5 degrees).
