What a sad loss. All praise to the command crew who brought her down.

I think it is a bit premature to be allocating blame at this stage. There will be a full FAA investigation which will have all the facts.

A shatter fuel line could stem from a speck of carbon trapped in the material 70 years go when it was manufactured. Who Knows? Best ones to find out are the official investigators.

Cheers!
