Don't confuse pre-impact course with post-impact.

So where is the POC, and if it is while she was west bound, why did she turn 180 degrees when intending to continue east.

There is no explanation at this stage why the ACX Crystal was changing course. POC I think is at the bottom of the first loopback.

The time of the collision now seems unclear. If it was at 0130 LT then what you say appears correct.
