Cheap operator ...

Extremely poor management, lacking in awareness.

The visibility out of a B737 at best of times is limited. Add in a mix of smoke, and any other challenges of "fire attack" etc; .. simply ask the question.. Why were there not at least two observers in the cockpit; additional to the two flying pilots; both of the "eyes" would be fully qualified B737 pilot's.

I'm pleased the crew escaped with nothing more than a bruise or two from their seat belt.

But really ?? No observers ??
