Maintenance, Maintenance, Maintenance! Many things bother me about this avoidable crash, but maintenance is the worst. Engine rotor blades have to be x-rayed for cracks and corrosion on a semi-regular basis. The company must be held responsible, just imagine the loss of live if this would have happened over landed areas.

Also, the gauges tell the story, the captain should have verified what the 1st officer told him, especially with an engine failure. Thankfully, both survived.
