Among the survivors is the technician Erwin Tumiri.
Meanwhile "flight technician" Erwin Tumiri still can't accept the crash was due to lack of fuel and believes it to be faulty APU.
And there I was hoping that Erwin might be sitting in the flight deck and be privy to the fuel discussions and shed some valuable light on the chain of events. APU's tend to be faulty if they have no fuel to start up with. Does he think the APU could have replaced the engines?
It turns out that they had performed several earlier 4 hrs+ flights before with this RJ85.
There should therefore be a paper trail of the FPL's for those flights and perhaps the dispatchers alive to comment. There should also be a paper trail of the tech logs and fuel receipts after uplift to analyse those flight profiles. i.e. a history can emerge of what 'the norm' was. Then questions can be asked as to how 'the norm' was allowed to continue.
