It seems to me the signs have been pointing pretty obviously to a flapless take-off since the earliest, but some were getting hung up on stalling engines and alleged engine fires, which were secondary factors, not primary. A very sobering set of pictures- awful to think 160 odd people were left mangled in that wreckage. One must spare a thought for the rescuers who had to trawl through it desperately looking for signs of life and how deeply this sort of thing must affect any human. I don't know how they can do it.
