Meanwhile no attempts are made to prevent a repeat of this crash?
Number of successful MD80 take-offs both before and after the accident seems to discredit this statement, whatever caused the crash.
I am prepared to stand corrected if this case is proven to be caused by something that no application of current procedures could prevent, but I doubt I'll be.
speeds for normal take-off -in this case flaps 5
Now what are the speeds for normal take-off in NG? On my bus V2s for the same weight, but for different runways can differ up to 25 kt. High k in kVs can help you get away with a too low config. Let's wait for the report to see what were the actual speeds used and what was the actual configuration.
Provided that the the leaked draft is accurate, behaviour of the airplane is consistent with stall at the upper fringes of the ground effect. Historically, such stalls were cused by either too low speed, lesser config that intended or wing icing. And we can rule out icing here.
