Sounds like the ADC or whatever that airline was in my day.....with the aircraft that had a regular Compressor Stall on the one engine.....that never seemed to get fixed. I always wondered if that played a role in the crash they had.

The flight from Calabar to Lagos was always a roll of the dice to me. When ACN got into the fixed wing airline business....the standards certainly went up over the ADC crowd.

With the report of both engines quitting....and a slow pace to the post trash fire.....doughnuts to dog droppings they ran out of fuel. Just a guess but that has been the story in the past in Nigeria.
