If this concerned aircraft had been properly flown, then the passengers and most likely the crew would be with us today.
I wonder how many here have flown this particular model? I have, and certainly know what I am talking about. At heavy weights, it will have great difficulty achieving any kind of climb gradient on one engine.
However, would have to admit, sometimes even with the best of effort, s..t happens.
