In what seems to have been a very brief interview with the captain, Dennis Kahn, he is quoted as saying:

"The runway had nothing to do [with the accident]; it seems to have been a technical fault. Up until touchdown everything was normal (...). I tried to stay on the runway but the imbalance of the aircraft to the right overcame me."

“La pista de aterrizaje no tiene nada que ver, aparentemente ha sido una falla técnica. Hasta no pisar suelo todo estaba normal (…) Traté de mantenerme en la pista pero el desequilibrio del avión a lado derecho me ganó”, afirmó.
