Unofficial summary.

1) Plane hits birds on approach, apparently a G/A is attempted (IAW Boeing manual re engine failure on approach option).

2) Both engines quit, having eaten more than their certified allowance of poultry.

3) Plane plonks onto runway, wrecking 'frame and causing injuries either during impact or subsequent evacuation. Good handling avoids disaster!!

4) Wreckage and pilots relatively intact and DFDR and CVR presumably found on the same day.

5) Next year the engines go to Wales for stripdown and examination.

6) 'Frame returned to UK and allegedly used as engineer training rig

7) FIVE YEARS LATER we pilots eagerly await the full report.

Apart from the final report, what am I missing??
