My first post, I don't see posted before... be kind with me...

Heard from cadena SER 10 minutes ago.

Cadena SER had access to the draft of the preliminary report about the accident.

I will put in quotes the literal translation.

"The report says that the flap/slat didn't work at the takeoff, also the warning system didn't work at takeoff"

"After an accident at (don't rembember), MD issued a AD about the flap/slat revision. The spanair manual was outdated because It specified that MD issued an AD that the flap/slat must be checked prior every fligth, Spanair checked the flap/slat only one time at day".


This is more or less the info, at 22:00 is the full information.
