It's basically airframe to dust in three frames, so maybe a 1/20th of a second. The moment of impact would have been mercifully quick.

Nerve impulses travel at about 120 m/s, max, and that's along long myelated runs. Cohering raw pain signal into the experience of pain takes at least 150 msec according to the best measurements we have on the topic.
The vertical speed of the plane alone at last reported speed indication exceeds the speed of neuron transmission along myelated nerve tissue. This impact event is mechanically impossible to feel.
