Sad story if indeed the aircraft was going to another maintenance facility to have its engines checked... RIP to the crew.
In the initial reports and because of the US Government shutdown no one from the FAA or NTSB was going to be on sight to start the investigation. Does anyone know if this changed since the crash? |

I would expect that "go teams" are on call for on-scene investigations of any major accidents which might occur, but with a severely reduced availability of support and administrative staff. That's just my guess though. As for any continuing work on in-process investigations, I doubt it. As well, any accidents which don't meet the threshold to be termed "major investigations" may be relegated to local authorities for preservation until such time as a field investigator becomes available. The breaking news right now is that the President has signed a bill to suspend the partial government shutdown for three weeks. How long it will take for NTSB to resume normal operations is unknown, but it's probably reasonable to expect a normal compliment of staff to show up for work on Monday? |

What's wrong with showing blood, for goodness' sake. We're all full of the stuff after all. Try working in a hospital. Or being a woman.
