Not unexpected.

While the preliminary report doesn’t allow for any conclusions it certainly provides compelling information that reduces the likelihood of certain potential accident causes; e.g., fuel exhaustion, fuel starvation, fuel contamination, dual-engine bird strike.

One curious finding regarding the inadvertent engine shutdown scenario is the thrust levers being found near the idle stop position and the #1 fuel control unit being found at the idle position and the #2 forward of the idle stop.
