It's also being said (CNN) that the plane is largely intact at the bottom of the ocean, which is difficult to square with a steep angle of incidence. It further seems unlikely to me that a hacker could, by virtue of remote control, induce "impossible" flight dynamics that a pilot "could not" (as opposed to "would not") perform.
To postulate that winds and weather caused these fllght dynamics, you'd need updrafts in excess of 100 mph, and downdrafts higher than that. Certainly its possible for winds to reach these speeds (see "mesocycle" and "derecho") and we know that the pilot was flying into a storm.
Mercifully, this plane was found, and because it's in relatively shallow water, answers seem probable.
