• loss of power is apparent, initially seems to get OK climb rate

• these planes have so much power, can climb on one engine, misconfiguration doesn't really do it

• no evidence of eg bird strike

• no yaw from single engine failure, doesn't really look like it lost one engine and then shut down wrong one.

• normally gear is retracted when no remaining runway to land on, still extended

• don't see flaps extended but advanced wing might make it hard to see

• both engines failing at same time is hard, even with fuel issue (contaminated fuel seems possible)

• presumably multiple failures/errors, recorders will tell.

• crazy that one guy survived and practically walked away, everybody gonna be selecting lucky seat 11A
