Boeing 747,

To the opinion of AvioConsult, out of control due to not observing the requirements and conditions for VMCA2 to be valid was contributing to the cause of the accident. This is thoroughly explained in the report Airplane Control after Engine Failure, presented above. Read the introduction to this analysis | Top |
