Thanks, I was wondering, given that there is a photo showing what could be oil smoke from both nacelles which themselves are very dirty around the bottom of the cowling area, if the loss of thrust during the go-around could be due to engine run down from loss of lubrication. I'm finding it hard to believe that there was a belly landing on the first approach, and I wondered if there was oil loss could it have started at the departure end of the flight and gradually lost oil during the whole trip. How easy is it to leave the oil filler caps off?
