No further word on the pilots that I have heard. Instructor and pilot trainee. Both ejected but badly injured. One was hanging in the power lines according to this report

Sounds like it may have been a bird strike. Talked to a friend today who works at Lockheed next to the Joint Reserve Base here. Word is they did a touch and go and over the lake they sucked up some ducks. Engine failed and they ejected at just 2-300 feet. We’ll see if that is what happened.

My secretary "heard" that the aircraft hit a residence....?

Sounds plausible for sure.

Hadn’t heard of this. Prayers up

My secretary confirmed it hit her grandparents house. Luckily the people in the house came out with minor injuries but the house appears to be a total loss.
