IIRC, 139 t/r blades issue. Back to this tragedy, it just 'appears' that several failures focused on MGB/ MGB area. Recall that a witness stated seeing a fire on top of the Norway 225 prior to ground contact.

And now the petition is over 20000 signatures. Have to respect the passengers (families) concerns.

Condolences to crew and pax families
