    We will see I suppose. Your last sentence is most certainly true in any case but I will stand by the fact that after 13 years a mechanical problem will much more likely be due to bad maintenance- especially given AIs difficult track record in that regard.

      Yeah, absolutely, AI has issues- that’s why I narrowed my “Boeings fa**ult” down to electronics/software. There isn’t too much maintenance they can fuck up in that department that can kill both engines(afaik). In other parts like fuel,fuel distribution,etc? Totally different.

      My bet is still on sometimes with the fuel, though. Maybe water in the fuel.

        My suspicion is fuel contamination as well. Just terrible all around. Hope we get some facts from the investigation rather soon.
