Kentucky air crash

[NutmegCT]

I have no idea if AI was involved, but I do note it came from a local (Chicago) news source, not a national source. Copy/paste text searches all result in the same NBC Chicago source - at least until other search engines begin "sharing it with all their friends".

Anyway, would be interesting to do an FAA search on problems with that engine, or MD-11/DC10 fuselage.

I'd rather concentrate on what NTSB turns up.

EDIT - there are references popping up to a compressor stall on the R I G H T engine. That would be an immediate disaster, especially at takeoff.

Is decoding the 'black box' NTSB or FAA?
Do either have any staff left to do that?
Why do they always say it might take years to report back?

The two black boxes, if they survived the crash, would be analyzed by NTSB. That can take days, or years.

And the boxes don't record structural failures - just readings on the sensors.

Investigators begin working on black boxes of doomed UPS flight

NTSB investigators are looking into the black boxes to figure out the cause of the plane crash.
