"...but from the photo of the car struck by the Peekskill meteor I would 
estimate the angle of impact at less than 30 degrees to the ground."

I took the famous photo of the meteorite-struck car at Peekskill, NY, and 
carefully examined the position of the vehicle relative to the "crater" 
beneath. I can firmly state that the angle of final descent was very near to 
vertical.
