I watched the Air Disasters Cable Show on this crash. Very sad and all because of the way they reinstalled the engine not in accordance with manufacturer specifications.

When I was in college I had a part time job doing line service on corporate jets. I worked around the mechanics all the time and I remember the first time I saw them installing safety wire on nuts/bolts on the engine pieces. Having worked on cars and not being used to seeing this, I said something to the mechanics about it and they said you don't want to loose engine parts at 30,000 feet. Makes sense I thought... LOL
