pilot to believe the best thing to do would be go straight ahead. that may have been something. he not have been able to turn the airplane. >> perhaps he thought he still had engine functionality with respect to the second engine if the first went down. >> and i heard that speculation earlier with possible fuel problem where you have an engine fail and shortly thereafter another engine fails. >> we do know this particular airline is a division of a larger airline. they put out a statement that says we do not yet know what happened to the flight. our deepest sympathy goes to the families and friends to tha passengers and crews on the jet. if our fears are confirmed this is a dark day. we hope to find survivors. >> this plane actually was last in service on sunday. that was the last day it flew prior to this trip.
