Can you tell me who — when and where — saw that the left engine of the SAS Spanair was on fire?
Where are all these witnesses?
AP is very careful:
The Spanish newspaper El Pais reported that one of the two engines failed and may have caught fire during takeoff.
Another paper, La Vanguardia, said witnesses saw the plane’s left engine explode and catch fire before the aircraft went down.
Experts said this kind of plane is designed to fly with just one engine in an emergency, raising questions over whether something else may have caused the crash.
A wise reader of the Daily Mail is right in his comment:
‘Accidents’ do not just happen!…
They are ’caused’ by a series situations that need decisions to be made.
